Artist Talk - Marissa Cruz

Marissa Sean Cruz is a digital multimedia and video performance artist whose allegorical works study identity, value systems, and power relationships. Their work is a reframing of pop culture artifacts through computer-generated imagery and evocative costumed performances. Specifically remixes of mid 2010s teen pop rock, corporate consumer design and hot foam-masked cosplays are synthesized to create poetic alternate narratives and ideas.
