bio      

Jessica Feldman is New York-based intermedia artist with a background in sound, electronics, sculpture, and installation. She moves among the worlds of new media art, electronic music, academia, and activism. Her works include sculptures, performances, interventions, installations, videos, and compositions. Many are site-specific, public, participatory, and/or interactive, and deal with the relationships among the body, technology, (the) media, and intimate psychological and communal social dynamics revealed by contemporary systems of control. Pieces have been performed, installed and exhibited internationally at art galleries, museums, concert halls, public parks, city streets, tiny closets, boats, the New York City subways, and the internet. New York venues include Socrates Sculpture Park, White Box, The Kitchen, LMAKProjects, Roulette, The Stone, and many outdoor locations. Her work has received awards from NYSCA, the LMCC, the Max Kade Foundation, Columbia University, the Bronx River Art Center, Meet the Composer, and the Experimental Television Center. She teaches sound art, physical computing, and interactive technologies in the Graduate Media Studies program at The New School. She received an MFA in Intermedia Art from the Milton Avery School for the Arts at Bard College (2007), an MA in Experimental Music from Wesleyan University (2005), and a BA in Music from Columbia University (2001) and currently is completing a PhD in Media, Culture, and Communication at New York University.
