Kristal Jones (She/Her) is a Queer, Fat, multi disciplinary artist who works in visual, audio and story telling mediums. She is an internationally published model, spoken word artist/poet who has competed nationally with the Peterborough Poetry Slam Team, as well as a Photographer who has been featured in several local publications.

Her focus is primarily on creating a narrative that challenges patriarchal norms and celebrates big bodies. She creates from an anti-oppressive framework, often drawing on lived experiences, authentic emotions and personal trauma. In this performance titled 'Fat.Girl.Riot.', she will be showcasing a collection of her work using a mixture of comedy, poetry and visual projections to share with the audience, ideas of radical self love and a proverbial flipped bird toward the patriarchy.
