Bio
Dave McKenzie creates videos, performances, installations, and objects that examine the inner workings of the structures of desire and belief in contemporary culture. McKenzie explores how public space and the private self are simultaneously alienated, connected, and restricted. At the heart of his diverse practice lies a poetic quest for interaction that lays bare the complications of social rules and obligations with which we navigate personal relationships.
