Professor Kuhn is a passionate teacher who loves to encourage creative self-expression in young people and inspire them to see the world around them without prejudice. She is currently head of Visual Arts at SUNY Jefferson Community College. Prior to that she was Professor of New Media & Digital Art at William Penn University, and six years prior was Faculty Research Assistant in the Department of Fine Arts Foundation Studies at Arizona State University.

 

Kuhn's personal art work centers around narrating and formulating the internal and external environment by navigating habitats of land, sea, and sky. Through innovative print process of adding and subtracting recorded documentation, Kuhn’s work is constructed from hard, soft, obscure, and translucent materials. They exhibit both the physical and mental states of fragility and sustainability inside and out of the body. Viewers are pushed to question current issues that are offering windows of collaboration opportunities between artists and scientists.
