Kelli Anderson

Kelli Anderson is a graphic artist and paper engineer who works with a wide range of mediums including infographics, branding design, pop up books and risograph animations. She was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, where she grew up. Half of her family is from Brooklyn and half is from New Orleans, and by result, Anderson states she has a rather confused accent. Her father is a river pilot and her mother is a stay-at-home mom.

Anderson has developed curricula and taught in graduate programs at NYU, ITP, Parsons, the School for Poetic Computation, The New School in New York City, as well as art history at the Pratt Institute and paper engineering, typography and risograph animation at Cooper Union. She is known for her TED talk on disruptive art, and has published 3 books. Her work has been published by NPR, MoMA, Chronicle Books, and The New Yorker.

Anderson’s biggest influences are Marjorie Welish, a art history professor and Linda Francis, a painting teacher at the Pratt Institute of New York. Provided by Wikipedia
