Kiera Boult is an interdisciplinary artist and performer from Hamilton, ON. Her work uses comedy and camp aesthetics to critically explore race, identity, gentrification, and the pageantry of popular culture. Her performance persona, Kiki, reigns as the ultimate Art/Reality Star, equal parts theory and hot mess. She is the celebrity you deserve: guilt-free, high-glam, and critically unhinged, inviting audiences to explore the artist’s role in society skeptically. Boult’s recent work, Hamilton’s My Lady (2022), was presented at the 7A*11D performance art festival and Hamilton’s Supercrawl. In 2019, she received the City of Hamilton Arts Award for Emerging Visual Artist, with exhibitions at the Art Gallery of Ontario, the Art Gallery of Hamilton, and Artcite Inc. Windsor. When not delivering hot takes and even colder reads, Boult manages Outreach & Public Programming at Vtape.
