Swipe right for a CUTE surprise!
Daniel O’Shea makes theatre, designs projections, and creates films, using formal rigour to
support narrative and deepen dramaturgy. In his own works, PKD Workshow and Are we not
drawn onward to new era, Daniel employs a low-fi DIY aesthetic, exposing the guts of the
performance machinery. His work focuses on attending to presence, destabilizing viewership, and novel forms in design and new media. Daniel’s artistic research has explored the ephemeral nature of a ‘self’, interruptions of technology on human processes, and the results in cognitive dissonance.
Daniel’s work has been seen in Canada and internationally. He is a founding member of A Wake of Vultures. Daniel works within Vancouver’s thriving contemporary performance scene and often engages in crossover with indie film and the digital arts.
