• About
  Catherine McCurry is an artist and programmer whose work probes the boundaries of possibility, conceivability and the bizarre through multiple media, including performance, video, sound, and installation. She invents worlds that contain hypothetical technologies, and modified rules of reality, and invites performers, or viewers to interact with them. She's interested in expanding definitions of identity as they relate to gender, body modification, fashion, and fad, and in manifesting wild objects and concepts in reality.
  Catherine trained as a classical violinist at the New England Conservatory, and graduated from MIT in 2007, where she studied Physics and Music Composition. In 2008 she was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship to pursue Multimedia Performance in residence at the UdK Berlin. In 2012 she received a masters degree at NYU's Tisch School of the Arts in the Interactive Telecommunications Program.
  She can also be found at Wieden+Kennedy New York where she currently works as a creative technologist.
