Cyan D’Anjou
Cyan D’Anjou is a multimedia sculpture and performance artist whose work takes on a speculative quality as she envisions the potential impacts of technological advancements in virtual experience and information economics–which she expresses in the form of multidisciplinary installations situated within conceptual narratives. As technological innovation continues to grow, the most important reminder to Cyan is that technology is a vehicle for human agency, reflecting the desires and needs of our multidimensional human experiences, politics, and social fabrics.
With a background in technology design and innovation ethics from Stanford University and RCA’s Information Experience Design program, she creates tactile experiences around AI, robotics, and media technology’s growing presence in our everyday and the subsequent cultural, anthropologic, and psychological changes that follow the normalization of data capitalism in our environments. Her work has been exhibited internationally including at the Centre Pompidou’s IRCAM, SOMArts, Saatchi Gallery, Sonsbeek ’16, the High Museum of Art, and at Ars Electronica Festival.
In the context of CODE 2024, she created the work meta:morphosis together with Aleksandra Naydenova, Amber Macintyre, Dorijn Boogaard and Kurina Sohn.
