ALLISON BERKOY is an interdisciplinary artist based in Brooklyn. Mixing physical and electronic media, she creates video sculptures, interactive installations, and performances between humans and machines. With participatory and often absurd narratives, Berkoy’s installations become stages for performance that test the boundaries and etiquette of human-machine interaction as well as human-human relationship. Her works have exhibited in galleries and art venues across the U.S. and internationally, as well as in less conventional settings: a train caboose, a salvaged lightship, and a peephole gallery in a bathroom. Berkoy holds an MFA in Electronic Arts from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, an MA in Performance Studies from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts, and a BS in Theatre from Northwestern University. She is an Associate Professor of Emerging Media Technology at CUNY’s New York City College of Technology and serves on the Board of Directors of the New Media Caucus.
