👉🏽 Biography & Profile ♾️
P! Krishnamurthy explores how art & design can be agents of transformation for individuals, communities, and institutions. This manifests itself across events, exhibitions, images, performances, publications, systems, talks, texts, and workshops (+ karaoke!). He runs Department of Transformation, an artist-organized group that prototypes new modes of togetherness and mutual learning, as well as Wkshps, a multidisciplinary design consultancy. He received the Cooper Hewitt National Design Award for Communications Design in 2015 and KW Institute for Contemporary Art’s “A Year With…” residency fellowship in 2018. His professional papers were acquired by Bard College’s Center for Curatorial Studies in 2019. In 2022, Domain Books published his book-length epistolary essay, “On Letters.” In 2024, KW, König Books, and Kunsthal Gent will publish “Past Words,” an anthology of his writing from 2009–2024.”> <meta name=
