Paige King is an artist and creative researcher based in Brooklyn, NY whose work focuses on environment, sculpture, and people. Paige’s practice emerges from probing the physical, legal, and psychological systems that keep us separate and meditates on the everyday engagements that keep us connected.
Her current research/practice scrutinizes Puritan intertidal laws and shoreline access in the United States. She deploys relational activations and access sculptures through legal ambiguities and loopholes. The ocean is a co-collaborator, and Paige attempts to use joy as a mode for discourse.
The environments and people involved are central to a larger ongoing form; the physical work created and documented is both artifact and wheel.
As a creative practitioner working across industry, Paige organizes international projects for Cyland Media Art Lab, serving as an assistant curator and co-editor, and contributes to annual publications like MIT Press and CURA. Previously, Paige planned programming at Thoughtworks Arts Residency in New York, focusing on the impacts of emerging technologies on culture and society.
Paige co-founded Convening Bodies Residency with Jenny Hawkinson
