Kara Gut is a multidisciplinary artist whose primary focus is image-based digital media. Her work investigates the new shape of human intimacy formed by internet lifestyle, constructed detachment from reality, and the power dynamics of the virtual. She received an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art in 2016. Solo shows include Presence at IRL Gallery in Cincinnati, Ohio, and Crystal Magic Weapon at Open Space, Baltimore, Maryland. Recent group shows include Daily Rush: Season 3 at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Detroit, and LAN Party at the 2020 Tbilisi Architecture Biennial. She is represented by Lava Project, and her videos are editioned by Daata Editions. In Spring 2021 she will be in residence at Pioneer Works in NYC. She currently lives and works in Cleveland, Ohio.
Gut's work was on view at SHAG in March 2021 alongside Clare Gatto in their collaborative show, Spawning Point.
