Ben Bogart (they/them) is a non-binary agender adisciplinary artist working for two decades with generative computational processes, and has been inspired by knowledge in the natural sciences in the service of an epistemological inquiry. Bogart has produced processes, artifacts, texts, images and performances that have been presented at galleries, art festivals and academic conferences nationally and internationally. Notable exhibitions include solo shows at the Canadian Embassy at Transmediale in 2017 and the TechLab at the Surrey Art Gallery in 2018.  They have been an artist in residence in Canada at the Banff Centre, New Forms Festival, Mount Pleasant Community Art Screen, Deer Lake Park and internationally at Videotage (Hong Kong). Their research and practice has been funded by the Social Science and Humanities Research Council of Canada, the British Columbia Arts Council and the Canada Council for the Arts. Bogart enjoys tickling various mosses, can eat a lemon slice including peel without flinching, and if they had to be a bird would love to be a swallow. Ben is a settler of Dutch and French ancestry and lives and works on the unceded traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̍əm (Musqueam), Sk̠wx̠wú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) First Peoples, also known as Vancouver.
