CANDACE THOMPSON is a [human] performer and interdisciplinary media maker fascinated with the feedback loops generated by place, culture, identity, climate, economics, and daily interpersonal interaction. She makes video, audio, performance, and ritualistic installations– both IRL and online—that examine and challenge the truths we purportedly hold to be self-evident. Perhaps they aren’t so self-evident after all. Her project “The Collaborative Urban Resilience Banquet” (aka The C.U.R.B.) uses the act of urban foraging and the projected “what if” disaster scenarios of climate change to examine critical issues around food systems and food sovereignty, land access, environmental remediation, multi-species interdependence, and right relationship(s) with the (un)natural world. Her project “OK Gurgle” (with collaborator Lex Powell) examines how the robber barons of the tech-era pilfer and profit off of our emotional attachment(s) to our digital devices. She was a 2018-2019 Fellow with More Art’s Engaging Artist’s Program, is an Associated Artist with Culture Push, and is a resident this year with Residency Unlimited’s Dirt and Debt Program, the Oak Spring Garden Foundation, Swale House and Fresh Ground Pepper.
