Curated by:

Emerging out of queer experience, the works in somatic SENSOR move along lines of flight exploring desire, technology, the erotic and the viral.

Features the work of Sadie Barnette, Zach Blas, Robert Crouch, Micha Cárdenas, Amy Sara Carroll, Dino Dinco, Dawn Kasper, Frankie Martin, Elle Mehrmand, Zac Monday, Yann Novak, Brianna Rigg, Phil Skaller, Samuel White, Dorian Wood, and Suzanne Wright.
