SHE’s Digital Residency series returns this May with artist Theodora Eliezer! (@theodora.eliezer) We are excited about their work in particular as a way to return to connection after a transformative year. Drop in here for weekly process updates from their rich studio practice. Welcome Theodora!

Theodora Eliezer is a New Orleans-based multimedia artist and futurist. Their practice is characterized by interconnected narratives in installation, lens-based media, digital and physical artifacts, and related critical theory. Much of their work explores non-linear time, panpsychism, and feminist considerations of the body, identity, aesthetics, and technoethics. Influenced by Masahiro Mori and Carlo Rovelli, their recent work is concerned with the future rights of sentient machines and the intersection of magick and quantum theory.

Eliezer’s ongoing Soft Decay series (pictured below) explores the function of fungi as an organic internet and the extended intelligence of the natural world.
