Kris Lock looks to the extraterrestrial imaginaries of watery places and microcosmic geographies, from container ships and hydroponics farms to islands and ponds, as places of peculiar harmonies and dissonances. The fabric of these places bend under the relativities of the agents that populate them, like marbles on a spandex sheet. Kris works through painting and writing.

Exhibitions include 'Torrential Flood of Heavy Spinners' Off Season, 2026. 'Realms' Curated by Gemma Rolls-Bentley, Carl Freedman Gallery, 2024. ‘Resurrection Collapse Poem’ for 'HTSF#13', Arcadia Missa, 2023. 'The Vase in the Container' Whitstable Biennale, 2018. Kris is also a founding director of Well Projects, a contemporary art gallery and publishers based in Margate UK.
