Stewart Skylar Copeland


My name is Stewart Copeland. I would describe myself as a transdisciplinary artist with a passion for emergent media, new narrative genres, and artistic research. My art often incorporates technology as a means to explore, dissect, and interrogate technological systems themselves. Collaboration across disciplines plays a major role in my practice, particularly in the field of science where I often work with biologists, engineers, and wildlife management personnel.

I have worked as a director, producer, designer, musician, photographer, carpenter, and webmaster. Now I am primarily focused on teaching and making art. I have taught at the University of Illinois and the Rhode Island School of Design. I am currently an assistant professor in the Department of Art at the University of New Mexico where I teach Experimental Art + Technology.
