Marisa Conroy

Marisa Conroy (they/them) is a New York-based multidisciplinary artist and producer. They work within the delicious messiness of the post-digital, creating work that deals with the uneasy entanglements of the human and the digital. They take invisible digital processes and make them live and embodied on stage. Their work combines AI-generated media, haunting sound design, and live audio mixing filtered through the human body. They’re interested in exploring the interstitial spaces where words, concepts, and imagery are lost in translation. Their research looks at the principles and functionalities that bind queer theory, animal mimicry, and the trans experience to cyborgs. Their work is radically queer and unexpectedly scientific. As a producer, they have worked in Dublin, Ireland, with Anu Productions, Live Collision International Festival of Live Art, and Lois Weaver. In the US, they worked most recently on NY Pops Up!, an expansive festival consisting of hundreds of pop-up performances that regularly permeated the lives of New Yorkers during the COVID-19 pandemic run through the New York State Governor’s office. They spent the Summer of 2022 working as a production intern on Big Art Group’s Venice Biennale presentation of Broke House. They hold a BA in Theatre and Performance Studies from UC Berkeley and are an MFA in Theatre candidate at Sarah Lawrence College. Website: marisaconroy.cargo.site
