LUNA Fête 2019 : The Shadow Circus

Courtney Egan’s projection-based light installations weave botanical art with sculpture and technology. Strongly inspired by the profusion of native and non-native flora in New Orleans, where she has lived and worked in since 1991, she digitally manipulates the natural world, questioning how our perception of nature is modulated through technology. Solo shows include the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, Arthur Roger Gallery, and the Louisiana Art and Science Museum. She was an artist-in-residence at the Santa Fe Art Institute and at Louisiana Artworks in New Orleans. She is a founding member of the New Orleans-based visual arts collective Antenna Gallery, and holds an M.F.A. from Maryland Institute College of Art.
