Creative Juicy

Apr 13

Sam Cannon is an artist and director based in NYC & LA. Occupying a space at the cross-section of photography, video, experiential and performance, Cannon has produced projection installations, live performances, large-scale prints, and sculptures. She’s mounted exhibitions at Art Basel Miami Beach, Mana Contemporary and SPRING/BREAK Art Fair, and has been named one of The Impression Magazine's “50 Female Creatives Representing the Next Generation of Talent."

On today's episode, Sam and I talk about how she first got into video, what it looks like to balance acting as both director and subject in her work, her perspective on screens and how her work often occupies them, and the inspiration behind her 2021 performance, 'Thinking about Getting into 3D.'
