Luca E. Lum is an artist and writer.
Through moving image, text, installation, drawing, performance, and collaborative arrangements, her work explores the architectures and excesses of the inhuman agencies that organize vision, time, death, desire, subjectivity, and world. Rather than just engaging with the (perceived) monumentalism of technopolitical apparatuses, she pays attention to the affective grounds upon which their realities and ideologies are inscribed. As material and method, she entwines vulnerable personal experiences with political circumstance, to reach for the edges of experience and a more capacious vocabulary to describe the present.
She is presently exploring the regulation of the ghost in crises times. She wants to make funnier work.
She was a co-founder of soft/WALL/studs (2016-2021, rip), a way of learning in (counter)publics.
