Kim Wasson Eagan is a lens-based artist working with still and motion-based imagery using analog, digital and non-silver processes. She creates surreal and narrative work inspired by dream-states, childhood memories and magical moments.

Beyond her research interests, Kim’s process is intuitive and associative, often drawing upon personal experience as well as chance encounters, she harnesses light and melds it with subject and location to create a certain alchemy within her images. Themes of relationships, nature, and phenomena surface in her work as she uses family as surrogates for the self to create visuals that contain female’s expressing agency and autonomy. She does not feel wedded to one medium and thus has used multiple formats across bodies of work.

Kim earned her BFA in Photography from the University of Texas Arlington and her MFA in Studio Arts with an emphasis in Photography at Texas Woman’s University, in Denton Texas. She resides in Fort Worth, Texas.
