Featured Artist

Lauren Tyler Norby is an artist and truth-fabricator working across disciplines and media to confound and amuse his audience. Taking a nonhierarchical approach to contemporary culture, Norby creates hybrid artworks fusing contradictory elements from both historical and fictional sources to investigate collaboration and authorship, entertainment, identity, and lying. Holding nothing sacred, he mixes and pollutes elements from Western society to challenge and critique entrenched beliefs through a variety of art forms, including video, installation, and performance. Norby earned his MFA at University of California, Santa Barbara. For more information on the artist visit his web site: laurentylernorby.com
