Steven McInerney

Steven MCINERNEY (Australia, 1983) is an artist living in London combining 16mm, digital projection and sound spatialisation to create expanded forms of cinema, live audiovisual performances and installations. McInerney’s work investigates behavioural responses to emergent phenomena, using the time-variant systems of media for exploration. Their cinematic work draws upon dichotomous energies, meditating between the sacred and profane, employing a structuralist methodology that values error and reappropriation. From here, speculative narratives take form, often blurring the lines between science and fiction. McInerney is the founder of Psyché Tropes, an interdisciplinary platform for media archaeological research and publication, with a monthly radio programme on Resonance 104.4 FM.
