Block A, 2023

Kathyrn Hamilton (AKA Sister Sylvester) makes work, often essayistic performances, using first-hand research and found documents, inviting disruption into both the performance and the process, and looking for dissonance and difficulty in text, image, and sound. She works with animals and technology to make cross-species collaborations and cyborg theater. Her first work was about a person who was part-cardboard box. Sister loves classic texts from theatre's underbelly, and her patron saints are Jean Genet, Bertolt Brecht, and Joan Littlewood. She is available for presentations, class visits, and collaborating on projects that investigate interdisciplinary research and creative practices.
