Chiffon Thomas (b. 1991, Chicago, IL) is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice spans sculpture, drawing, performance, and installation. His work investigates how institutional and improvised structures can simultaneously protect and oppress, with a focus on the experiences of marginalized communities. Thomas frequently incorporates materials such as steel, stained glass, fiber, mold-making, casting, and architectural salvage to create figurative assemblages. These works explore the complexities of identity formation and the negotiation of space within imposed environments.
