Choose Your Muse Interview: Lynn Hershman Leeson

Choose Your Muse Interview: Lynn Hershman Leeson.

Marc Garrett interviews Lynn Hershman Leeson artist and filmmaker, who over the last three decades has been internationally acclaimed for her pioneering use of new technologies and her investigations of issues that are now recognized as key to the working of our society: identity in a time of consumerism, privacy in a era of surveillance, interfacing of humans and machines, and the relationship between real and virtual worlds. Modern Art Oxford is currently hosting a major solo exhibition of her work 'Origins of a Species, Part 2', open until 9 August 2015.

Choose Your Muse is a new series of interviews where Marc Garrett asks emerging and established artists, curators, techies, hacktivists, activists and theorists; practising across the fields of art, technology and social change, how and what has inspired them, personally, artistically and culturally.
