BIO

Lyndsey Walsh is an artist, writer, and researcher based in Berlin, Germany. Lyndsey has a BA in Individualized Studies from New York University and a Master’s in Biological Arts with Distinction from the SymbioticA Centre of Excellence in Biological Arts at the University of Western Australia.

Lyndsey’s artistic practice sets out to “undoom narrative” by challenging accelerationist and extractivist futurisms that reinforce strict power dynamics and control over knowledge, authorship, and being. As technology reshapes life and planetary relations, those who make and know it are the ones with the generative power to write the future into existence and determine how the past is remembered.

Drawing from Crip Technoscience, Lyndsey’s work aims to develop and explore frictional and resistant uses of technology to interrogate and destabilize the presence of techno-doom. Recurring motifs and approaches in Lyndsey’s work often question the cultural binaries of human-non-human, diseased-healthy, and life-machine.

Lyndsey is the first and only residing artist of the Department of Experimental Biophysics at Humboldt Universität zu Berlin. Lyndsey’s work has been featured in events and with institutions such as Frieze Art Week New York, the Humboldt Forum, the Ural Biennial, Matadero Madrid, the Berlin Biennale, Athens Digital Arts Festival, and Transmediale/CTM and has received the S+T+ARTS Prize 2024 Honorary Mention and the Falling Walls Foundation Art & Science Breakthroughs Shortlist in 2025.
