In her job maintaining records of every artist who exhibits at Artpace San Antonio, a contemporary Texas art foundation, Kimberly Aubuchon deals with key benefactors on a regular basis.
“Art events happen about every other week, and I'm usually helping coordinate them,” said the 39-year-old, who also runs Unit B gallery. “Of course, (working in the art world) allows me to be more artful with my wardrobe.”
In fact, Aubuchon considers her go-to outfit “an art piece in itself.”
NAME: Kimberly Aubuchon
OCCUPATION: Archivist/artist
SHOE BE DO
“These really spoke to me; they're classy and old-school at the same time.”
FULL CIRCLE
“My friend Melissa Kolbusz made this bracelet — I'm a huge supporter of artist-made jewelry — she recycles metal and rubber washes and other industrial materials to create the most unusual pieces.”
FREE SPIRIT
“I'm not really a religious person, but I love my ‘Smiley Cross' necklace, especially since it was a gift from my late boss, Linda Pace.”
