Kelly Berg

Kelly Berg was raised in Minneapolis, Minnesota and is currently based in Los Angeles, California. Berg’s paintings and mixed media sculptural works explore the ever-shifting nature of our world. Known for her compositions depicting the movement of tectonic plates, volcanic eruptions, and dramatic geologic formations, Berg’s works offer a new perspective within the context of contemporary landscape and the sublime. 

She received her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2008, and her work has been exhibited in many galleries and museums including Melissa Morgan Fine Art, The Pete and Susan Barrett Art Gallery at Santa Monica College, The Lancaster Museum of Art and History, USC Fisher Museum of Art, Museo Ercolanense Portici, The LA International Airport, The Ronald H. Silverman Fine Arts Gallery at California State University, The Frederick R. Weisman Museum of Art at Pepperdine University. Berg’s work is part of the permanent collection of The Lancaster Museum of Art and History, The Frederick R. Weisman Art Foundation, and many private and corporate collections. Her work has also been featured in publications like The Los Angeles Times, Whitehot Magazine, and Artillery Magazine.
