Born in Gainesville, Florida, Chris Branch is a Brooklyn based artist working across painting, illustration, photography, and mixed media.

His work explores masculinity, vulnerability, labor, and the emotional tension of public life. Language appears as fragments, functioning as both statement and question. Humor and confrontation coexist, as do tenderness and resistance.

Branch is interested in how identity shifts depending on environment. The work considers the pressure of being seen, the instinct to protect, and the difficulty of intimacy within contemporary culture.

He is based in Brooklyn, NY.
