Sally Bozzuto is an interdisciplinary artist, educator, and creativity coach with specialization in lens-based arts, installation, ephemeral sculpture, social practice, and sound. Her practice and pedagogy bridge fine art and creative research with science, technology, and music composition. Her personal practice examines intersections between art and other disciplines, exploring temporality and documenting time-based processes via installation, historical and expanded print media, sound and video, experimental textiles, sculptural assemblages, and social practice. She prioritizes collaboration with diverse practitioners working in new media, performance, biology, technology, public policy, and activism.
She is a founder of Biome Arts, an international collective of artists, designers, engineers, biologists, and activists producing work that anticipates the next global paradigm: ecologically sustainable, open source, commons-based culture. Biome Arts creates large scale, eco-digital installations that enable other artists and the public to reimagine their relationship with nature and technology. Biome Arts’ project, Eco_Hack 2016, featured an immersive art installation, digital data collection network and an event series on Mary Mattingly’s floating food forest, Swale.
Bozzuto holds an MFA in Photography, Video and Related Media from The School of Visual Arts, a BFA in Music Composition and Education from Carnegie Mellon, and a certificate in photography from Pittsburgh Filmmakers School of Film, Photography and Digital Media. She has also participated in residencies and programs such as The Studios at MASS MoCA, New York Arts Practicum, Wassaic Artist Residency and the School of Making Thinking.
