Khristian Weeks

About the Artist

Khristian Weeks works primarily with phenomena - sonic, visual, kinetic, and situational - as distinct from the making of objects. His background is in music, first as an instrumentalist and improviser, eventually exploring composition and sound installation. Weeks earned a bachelor's degree from The New England Conservatory of Music in 1995 (and he has a BM to prove it), but not before taking a few years off of this schooling to re-examine his life-trajectory...to live a little. In 1990, he found a job caring for infants. He has since been attempting a balance between being a caregiver-educator, a parent, and living a creative-practice based life/style. We'll see... Khristian has been fortunate to have made connections - finding his way, with much generosity from those already being there, into the creative and usually "experimental" music/art communities in the East Coast cities where he's lived over the years: Boston, Orlando, New York, Durham/Chapel Hill, and Baltimore/DC. And while living in these cities Weeks performed and presented - and is still performing and presenting - his work in solo and collaborative capacities.
