Description: Unfixed Art and Research from Kevin Hamilton, artist and researcher at the University of Illinois
I'm a Professor in the School of Art and Design at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, where since 2018 I have also served as Dean of the College and Fine and Applied Arts . Originally from South Carolina, I studied painting at RISD and public art at MIT before entering higher education as a teacher, researcher, and administrator.
Though I spent some years making art on my own, today I mostly work with others on efforts that could result in art, but that also result in new scholarship, public programs, or institutional change. To this end I've become a student of the ways in which groups come together around divergent interests to achieve social transformation.
