Marcus de Sieno

A visual artist whose practice interrogates institutions of power through the language of photography, with a particular focus on the ongoing legacies of the American empire and the use of visual technology as a tool of state control. His work employs historical and experimental analogue photographic processes to create critical dialogues between power, territory, and history. He is an Assistant Professor of Photography at the University of South Florida. His work has been exhibited nationally and internationally at institutions and festivals including the Aperture Foundation in New York, Paris Photo, the Benaki Museum in Athens, the Finnish Museum of Photography in Helsinki, and Photo Access in Canberra, among others. His work has been widely published in leading art and media outlets and he was selected for Photolucida Critical Mass 50 and named an Emerging Talent by LensCulture. His first monograph, No Man’s Land: Views From a Surveillance State, was published by Daylight Books.
