STATEMENT / BIO
KS Brewer is a transdisciplinary artist-researcher and Ph.D. student of Electronic Arts at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, exploring life extension and preservation in technoscientific conceptions of present and future life, and alternative outlooks made possible from queer and abject standpoints of decay. Through experiential art, multiple senses, mediums, and technologies are incorporated together in search of affective intra-actions between human and/or inhuman beings.
