Stephanie Kuse is a video artist who works with digitally manipulated video footage of natural textures to create painterly abstract video art. She uses video editing software to amplify and distort details pulled from patterns and textures found in nature to produce vibrant synthetic compositions that maintain the organic energy and movement derived from the source material. The resulting work is gentle and soft with occasional digital grit.
Stephanie has worked collaboratively with musicians, audio artists and arts based organizations in a visual capacity since 2013. Since incorporating video art into her practice in 2016 she has produced interactive audio/video installations, created projections for music videos and theatre productions and performed live projections on several tours throughout Canada in addition to a tour of Germany in the fall of 2019. Her work can be viewed at www.sckuse.net and on instagram, @sckuse.
No experience necessary! Participants will need a personal computer (laptop, tablet, and desktop are all fine, access to the internet, and either a subscription or trial version of Adobe AfterEffects.
