Her performance work has explored themes ranging from food politics and excess to affect, family and ancestry. She is a frequent collaborator of another Beautiful Person, Tessa Allen. Together, Tessa and Krystalla form the performance duo, PAKT. Here are some clips from her most recent performances, Alas, Ajax, Alas, and Food, both of which feature Tessa as well.

Krystalla's Relationship to Brazil
I come from Australia and have never been to Brazil but I believe
that there are many links between Brazilians and Australians and I feel a
connection with pretty much all the Brazilians I meet. Our countries
are physically in line with one another (there's just a huge ocean in
between), we have similar climates and the same seasons. My family comes
from Greece and Scotland and my hometown of Melbourne is very
multicultural and like Brazil, it celebrates all of the different food,
music, art and culture that makes it such a wonderful place. I modeled
for this shoot because I am now an artist in New York and I am slowly
becoming part of a similarly culturally rich community of people from
all around the world that celebrates and learns from each others
differences.

Krystalla had graciously modeled in our Spring 2014 Collection fashion show, Sin Maíz No Hay Vida last September 2014, and has also given us the amazing opportunity to design her wedding dress!
Krystalla Pearce is a Beautiful Person to watch.
