Pamela Davis Kivelson is a multimedia artist, painter and performer whose work captures the emotional subtext of events as they unfold in the moment. She often fuses art and technology to explore the shared moments that influence us and create a sense of identity and inclusion.
“The Many Body Problem,” created with a diverse group of innovators named, “Collective Phenomena” and Stanford Physicist Hari Manoharan, is an installation that converts people’s movements into atomic configurations. The work explores the interplay of human lives and stored data and was inspired by Nobel Laureate Richard Feynman’s paper, “Room at the Bottom.”
Davis Kivelson was artist-in-residence at Stanford for five years. Currently she is a lecturer in the Stanford Design Program. Her works, including oil portraits, photographs, drawings, and prints, is on display in seven buildings across the Stanford campus. PDK and Collective Phenomena are working on an installation to open in Stockholm next year.

“This artwork is outward looking. Confronting the world as it is and engaging in public discourse about it, are more important than exposing the inner self or producing beautiful spots of color to decorate walls. It is artwork that looks at the human world as we find it now in the early 21st century. It is artwork that looks at the natural world as it is, threatened and threatening. And, at its crucial heart, this artwork is an exploration of the relationship, or more precisely, the alienation that exists between these two worlds. These pictures from the early 1990’s until the present should each be read as an essay about the state of life from the perspective of one big primate at this moment in time.” – Guy Colwell
