Most recently, Kristen has performed durational sound pieces at Phoenix Art Museum and Museum of Contemporary Art Tucson. Kristen is currently adjunct art faculty at Estrella Mountain Community College, and is the studio manager to internationally recognized artist Angela Ellsworth.

Sonic Textile

Sonic Textile is a piece where Kristen utilizes a theremin to sonically document my hand motions while she knits. She then takes a looping pedal and layers the sounds she is creating while she continues to add more rows to her knitting. Over time, the sound grows as the knitting grows. Individual notes become difficult to decipher, and the sound becomes solid -- blanketing the audience in the process.
