Biography

Samuel Swope's practice is most recognized for his research and development of flight and air as medium. Merging multiple media and engineering practices, he constructs and controls aesthetic systems that work with air and are often themselves airborne. Throughout his practice he experiments with issues on the non-human, human-machine interaction, human-drone interaction, and emerging technologies to explore our place within these complex hybrid systems. Swope’s work has been exhibited internationally at venues such as the Smithsonian National Museum of American History, Washington DC; PHD Group, Hong Kong; Krupic Kersting Gallery, Cologne; and Chronus Art Center, Shanghai.
