Kelli Anderson was born on the best bank of New Orleans during Mardi Gras. She currently lives and works out of her studio in Brooklyn which is shared with her boyfriend, a cat, assorted non-thriving plants, and a 500 lb letterpress. Her personal work deals with issues of perception misled—by design or by accident. She has contributed to the creation of three perfectly counterfeited newspapers, has been working on a series of photographs about runaway objects, and has been creating printed objects with carefully-placed holes. She heads up an initiative to digitize the glass plate negative collection of the American Museum of Natural History, teaches art history in Pratt's Pre-College program, and creates custom typography for every freelance project.
