ABOUT
Tracy Abbott Szatan is an interdisciplinary artist working across film, photography, glass and installation to contemplate the materials, mechanisms and histories of imagemaking. Her recent work considers the relationship of lenses and optical technologies to earth materials in order to foreground the natural and manmade processes of transformation that are the bases of photography and other imaging technologies, and to highlight human embeddedness in deep time. Szatan's work has been exhibited internationally, including at The Center for Performance Research, Plaxall Gallery and Trestle Art Space (NY); Highways Performance Space and Raid Projects, (LA); Agora Collective (Berlin); and Spier Light Art Festival (Cape Town). She received a BA from Brown University in Modern Culture and Media, and an MFA in Art from The Ohio State University. She has programmed film and video work with the NYC DIY video art series, Straight Through the Wall, as well as with the screening program, Cinéseries, which she co-founded at the Wexner Center for the Arts, in Columbus, Ohio. She is based in Ridgewood, Queens, NYC.
