Katriona Beales is a London-based sculptor who makes digital artefacts, moving image and installation, stressing the continuing role of the object in digital life. Her work responds to the experience of slipping between offine and online worlds, information overload, online behavioural addictions, experiences of the technological sublime and notions of a Digital Baroque. Katriona’s interdisciplinary project ‘Are we all addicts now?’ is supported by The Wellcome Trust and Arts Council England and will be exhibited at Furtherfield, London in 2017. Katriona received an MA from Chelsea College of Arts and has an artist profile on Rhizome.org - www.katrionabeales.com.
