Tina Kerekes: How to Rock an Artistic Path

She Rocked It

Rockstar energy – you know it when you see it. And Tina Kerekes just HAS IT. A walking magnet for music and art, and well-known for her rockstar sense of style, Tina is dedicated to following her own artistic path and mentoring other creatives along the way. She’s an artist, designer, one-time owner of a skate shop, and she even styled the music video for Khia’s iconic anthem “My Neck, My Back.” For the past several years, Tina has been the manager and curator of the Transparent Clinch Gallery in Asbury Park, NJ, where she’s cultivated a nurturing space for the community with a vibe best described as part gallery, part music venue, and part local living room. ️Transparent Clinch Gallery features photography, books, and more by Danny Clinch – one of the music world’s premier photographers and music video directors who has captured a wide range of artists, from Björk to Bruce Springsteen.
