2216: The Remix of a Global Experiment-Erin Smithers Photography

what iā€™m on

So, I'm both a researcher and performer, and I like to mix techniques inspired by the intersection of technology and live audiences. Engaging with my Florida-based roots as a point of emergence, anchoring my eclectic upbringing in Duval. My work blends the ritualistic expressions of my spiritual background with the modernity of southern sonic and visual aesthetics. I cross-fade these elements as a means to emancipatory world building and interventionist art practices. Allowing the container of theaters, found spaces, and classrooms to inform my productions, works-in-progress, and pedagogy.

I work as a generative artist. Frequently collaborating with creators operating on the fringes of their discipline, locating our curiosities and finding unexpected narratives that lie within the bricolage.
