Avalon Kalin makes documentary and social art connected to everyday life. He was the co-author of The Subconscious Art of Graffiti Removal film produced by Matt Mccormick and he studied under the first Social Practice MFA program with Harrell Fletcher and Jen Delos Reyes at Portland State University. His work has shown in institutions and perhaps more importantly between friends. He collaborates with his wife Posie Kalin designing installations and products. Together they publish ViD: Journal of Visual Divination. Click an image or link below to purchase one of Avalon's books. Listen to Avalon's music here. Contact Avalon.
