Reality, Virtually By Casey Koyczan, as told to Jessica Davey-Quantick

Abstract

Casey Koyczan is a Dene interdisciplinary artist from Denendeh whose work plays on all your senses. He’s displayed around the world, from Finland, Columbia, Chile and Mexico to the Netherlands, the USA and the UK. Now, he’s taking his work to a digital space: his series of walk cycles create literal characters, digitally, out of antlers, beading and caribou tufting. In June, 2023, he shared his thoughts on the future of Indigenous art and bringing traditional materials to the digital space in an interview with Jessica Davey-Quantick.
