Janna received their MFA in Electronic and Time-Based Art from Purdue University and am currently the Visiting Assistant Professor of Digital art at Indiana University.
They are part of a wave of new media artists rejecting the notion that craft and technology are directly opposed. Their work explores how deconstructing everyday technologies, or even making them for yourself can be used to question larger oppressive systems and create a space for participatory political action. Her activist and social art practice blur the lines between the materiality of craft and the digital realm of new media technologies to create socio-political interventions.
