Tracy Abbott Szatan is a lens-based artist working across video, photography, glass, and installation to activate the tenuous and shifting edges between the perceptible and the imperceptible. Her work engages histories of imaging technologies and the materiality of light and of human and nonhuman perception in order to explore the poetic possibilities humming both within and just beyond our perceptual experience. Her current research explores the relationship of optical technologies to earth materials as a means to consider the natural and manmade processes of transformation that are the bases of photography and other communication technologies and to engage human embeddedness in deep time. She received her BA from Brown University and is a co-founder of the graduate-led film program Cinéseries at the Wexner Center for the Arts.
