Kayla Lockwood (MFA 2026) is a New Media Artist excavating the liminal spaces of identity and memory in a multidisciplinary exploration of artmaking in the modern world. Her artistic practice takes shape through her dual artistic personas; Miss Identify, which explores the personal and emotional toll of being misidentified, and Social Sin, which tackles issues of systemic inequality from a collaborative and community perspective. She completed her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Art & Technology from the University of Oregon in Eugene and is currently pushing the boundaries of her personal, collaborative, and pedagogical projects as a Master of Fine Arts candidate at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
