Jacolby Satterwhite crafts surreal 3D animated videos while transporting characters from his virtual worlds into the streets of New York City. "We're in the age of the remix," says the artist, who observes that "now it's about how you use the information around you to generate your individuality." At a modest computer setup in his Chinatown studio, Satterwhite digitally traces by hand his mother's schematic drawings of inventions, reimagining them into baroque, neon-colored landscapes in a constant state of flux. In spaces throughout the city—the Brooklyn Bridge, Chinatown, Little Italy, Union Square subway station, and a Recess event at Le Poisson Rouge in Greenwich Village—Satterwhite also engages the public in the persona of his freewheeling avatar, wearing a custom-made costume outfitted with iPads and iPhones that loop the artist's videos. Simultaneously flamboyant provocations and a natural extension of his process, Satterwhite treats these spontaneous encounters in the city as a sketchbook that will inform future animations. Jacolby Satterwhite (b. 1986, Columbia, South Carolina, USA) lives and works in New York, New York.
