Chris Cote

Chris Cote received an undergraduate degree in history from University of Washington, after which he joined the Peace Corps in Moldova where he learned Romanian, completed community development projects and carried a camera everywhere. In 2011, he moved to South Korea where he co-founded and designed an art magazine and a screenprinting collaboration. These undertakings led him to design opportunities like branding for pubs and breweries and editorial design for artists and art museums.

Cote received his Master of Fine Arts in graphic design from Rhode Island School of Design in 2019. He is the 2019 – 2021 graphic design fellow at University of Tennessee, Knoxville. His design practice includes identity systems, books, magazines, posters, websites, exhibitions, patterns and videos. He believes in the intersection of design, art and community development.
