BIO

Rex is a trans and nonbinary artist living in Rogers Park, Chicago. They have worked as a fabricator and teacher, but they are currently working to find meaning in their own art. Rex holds an MA in Art Education from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, but it seems the person they want to educate is themself. They live with their spouse, cat, two guinea pigs, and a frog. They work in metal, glass, and paint.
