ABOUT THE artist
Pittsburgh Resident Ian Brill's work focuses on the accumulation of form through process. Through the creation of interactive, performative and multi-sensorial environments, he considers boundaries of becoming (versus being) and our immersive relationship with technology. His installations, performances and writing have been presented internationally, at conferences, festivals, museums and galleries. Brill’s last installation in Akron, titled Reverie, was a programmatic light installation covering the entire facade of the then vacant County of Summit office downtown, Building #2. Reverie was honored by Americans for the Arts as one of 50 outstanding public arts projects created in 2018 through the Public Art Network Year in Review program, the only national program that specifically recognizes the most compelling public art. Currently, he teaches at Penn State University’s World Campus/Digital Arts programs and resides in Pittsburgh, PA.
