About Jen lewin
Lewin has spent the last fifteen years honing her highly technical medium through the fabrication of large-scale interactive sculptures that she has exhibited in public spaces throughout the country. From responsive sound and light forms that incorporate dance, to woven fiber video curtains that reflect movement, to giant robotic moths that flutter in response to human touch, Lewin’s use of technology as a medium challenges popular conceptions of new media works and their limitations. At once organic and electronic, Jen Lewin’s playful sculptures leave viewers enchanted and surprised while encouragingdelight through the viewer’s engagement with the work.
