The full video is visible on the ArtCenter Graduate Art website as a virtual exhibition (February 1 - February 28 2021). Dear Eidolon is presented as a conversation between Carson Lynn As Lynn writes, “By blurring the lines between gamespaces, I sought to explore my complex relationship to these virtual environments that serve as sites for both trauma and discovery.”
Carson Lynn is an artist based out of Southern California who through the usage of digital materials, sublime landscapes, and exploration within gamespaces, creates artworks as a queering of heterocentric photographic conventions and game systems. He is working towards receiving his MFA from ArtCenter College of Design with a projected graduation in April, 2020. In 2015, he received a BFA in Photography and Imaging, also from ArtCenter.
