Sophie Kahn

Date 
b. 1980
London
UK

Sophie is Australian artist living in New York. Her work addresses the erotics of death in the still image. It owes its Victorian-futurist aesthetic to the interaction of the digital and the analogue. My sculptural and imaging practice is a hybrid one, combining new advances in 3d scanning and stereolithography with the bronze casting and paper craft. She has an abiding interest in medical imaging technology.
