Lex Brown '12

Lex Brown is multimedia poet and performer. Her work is informed by the omnipresence of data, information, media, and how it conditions our bodies and language. Brown uses science-fiction and storybook narrative to frame questions of justice, expression, and spiritual freedom within convoluted systems of corporate branding, commerce, and technology. Through performance, film, and narrative, her work  builds new characters and expansive fictional worlds in order to untangle internalized oppression within herself and the audience. Brown has exhibited at the New Museum, High Line, International Center of Photography, Recess, The Kitchen. REDCAT Theater, The Baltimore Museum, The Philbrook Museum, and the Munch Museum. Her work has been reviewed in ArtForum, Art in America, The New Yorker, and CURA. She is the author of My Wet Hot Drone Summer, an erotic sci-fi novella, and Consciousness, an 8-year survey of her work acquired by the MOMA, Met, and Whitney collections.

Brown teaches at Harvard University as a College Fellow in Theater Dance & Media and Art, Film & Visual Studies; and at Princeton University as a Lecturer in Visual Arts. She is a 2021 recipient of the United States Artists Fellowship.
