Tyler Givens aka Tyl000rd
Tyler Givens is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice is a fantastical domain of boundless freedom and lore. Working with traditional mediums and digital technologies, his work pushes at the limits of how a figure is rendered and animated, and likewise how a story is formed, told, and received. Inspired by the existentialism found in his favorite anime, the flamboyance of 00s fashion imagery, and his Church upbringing, his work explores themes of sex, escapism, and the end of the world through his queer, black lens.
Tyler has created two separate pieces for this program.
