Artist Biography
Kimberly Flynn (American, b. 1985, Boston, MA) is a Savannah, Georgia–based travel photographer whose work has taken her to national and international artist residencies, where she developed her series See Me. Flynn is the author of Businify Your Art Life, a guide to the business side of art, and Abstracted Distractions: Teetering Between Here and Gone, a collection spanning two decades of her work.
Her photography has been featured in numerous national and international exhibitions and has accompanied writers’ work in print publications. In addition to her artistic practice, Flynn has served as a juror and curator for multiple exhibitions, offering perspective from both sides of the field.
She has held board leadership roles within the arts community, including serving as Board Treasurer for a Savannah-based art nonprofit and as Board Grant Management Director for a photography mentorship nonprofit.
Artist Statement
I’m drawn to the moments people don’t realize they’re part of when expression softens and something real comes through. My work focuses on those in-between spaces, where a glance or gesture reveals more than intention.
Influenced by Nan Goldin, I photograph what unfolds around me without interruption. See Me is an ongoing, lifelong series that reflects the quiet tension of being present but unnoticed, capturing people as they move through their own worlds.
The title holds a simple contradiction: to be seen and unseen at the same time. The work asks for a slower look at the image, and at the moments we usually pass by.
