Samara Golden

Working largely with video installation, sculpture, and printed images on foam core, Samara Golden's colorful installations often incorporate an amalgamation of found objects and live camera feeds. Her elaborate sculptures feature everyday objects scavenged from thrift stores, images printed from the Internet, and digital media, arranged to create three-dimensional, multi-tiered collages. Golden says that the sculpture and video elements are meant to complete each other and to incorporate the viewer as a part of the sculpture. She has exhibited her work in both Los Angeles and New York, as well as Karlsruhe and Berlin, Germany.
