Statement
My art practice enables me to expose, question, and transgress the inner logic of the disciplines that define my professional career and how I navigate the world: IT systems, business models, data analysis, finance, enterprise software, UX/UI design and automation.
I invite the participants to play with me in the systems that invisibly govern our lives so that they can understand them as human creations and join me in redesigning and reimagining them. I combine feminist data practices with my professional information design skills informed by the best practices of software development to use the mainstream's logic and visual vernacular to undermine their deliberately implied objectivity.
Bio
Elisa Mirkil Queralt (b. 1994) is a Philadelphia-based artist and information designer. Her work bridges painting, drawing, printmaking, digital art, and installation.
Mirkil comes to art from a career in product design and technology, where she worked at the intersection of complex systems, information, and human behavior. That background informs a practice concerned with the human craft of technological systems and inherent bias in building systems.
She has a bachelor of arts in Sustainable Development from Columbia University and an MA in Information Design from Design Academy Eindhoven.
