“Defined by conflict and uncertainty.”

Shawn Vieron (b. 1999, Toronto, Canada) is an artist working in sculpture and installation. His practice examines how militarized infrastructures, competitive sports, and the distribution of pirated media permeate everyday life. His material approach considers the entanglement of these systems in disciplining and conditioning cultural identity, desire, and survival.Vieron completed an exchange semester at HDK-Valand in Gothenburg, Sweden, and has undertaken residencies at the Museo Textil in Oaxaca, Mexico, and the Estonian Academy of Arts in Tallinn, Estonia.
