Allison Berkoy is a Brooklyn based artist, exploring the communicative potential of physical-digital environments when combined with mutable storytelling and media. These works take the form of interactive installations, electronic sculptures, and networked audiovisuals; driven by code, sensors, and human bodies. With participatory and 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.
Allison completed her MFA in Electronic Arts from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, MA in Performance Studies from New York University, and BS in Theatre from Northwestern University. She is a 2022-2023 Artist in Residence in the Integrated Design + Media (IDM) program at New York University, Tandon School of Engineering, and an Assistant Professor of Emerging Media Technology at New York City College of Technology, City University of New York (CUNY).
