Kent Sheely is an intermedia artist based in Los Angeles who takes inspiration from the aesthetics and culture of video games, examining the relationships between the real world and virtual ones as well as the influence of psychology and politics on digital spaces. This manifests in a variety of forms such as experimental screenshots, critical game modifications, short films, and interactive installations.
Kent’s work is internationally acclaimed, having been noted as an important influence on the evolution of game-based art, and has been featured in numerous academic and games publications such as Blind Magazine, Artforum, WIRED, Kill Screen, and Kotaku.
