Collection: Jordan Metz

Jordan Metz is an experimental artist and researcher from San Diego, CA who works between digital and physical media. Her practice involves audiovisual programming and 3D scanning to forge connections between the real and virtual worlds. She received her BA in Film & Media Studies from UC Santa Barbara, which spurred an ongoing practice in digital performance as a tool for self-investigation.

Jordan’s work has been exhibited at Boston Cyberarts Gallery, Glass Box Gallery, and CultureHub. At the Rhode Island School of Design Digital + Media MFA program, their thesis project used computer vision to generate an interactive audiovisual installation. The Me I’ve Made For You was shortlisted in the Artsthread x Gucci Global Design Graduate Show.

My current ceramics projects combine new media technologies like 3D printing and 3D scanning with traditional fabrication techniques like mold-making, metal casting, and ceramics. I design objects using a 3D scan of my own body as a commentary on the way femme bodies are manipulated and used to provide comfort and support in our daily lives.
