Amy Reid

is a queer electronic musician and visual artist striving to transform spaces visually, sonically, and socially. Her work explores the queerness of non-human organisms and humans, as well as the liminal spaces of existence through the use of field recordings, vocals, electronic instruments, video and generative sound processes. While obtaining a BFA in Painting and Masters in Art Education at Maryland Institute College of Art, she began weaving sound pieces into works of visual art, incorporating her background as pianist, synth-player and percussionist. Her video, sound art, and performances have been exhibited at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, MD, Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh, PA, D.C.A.C. Gallery in Washington D.C., internationally at MEXE Festival in Lisbon and the Botanical Gardens in Porto, Portugal. She is currently an Artist Research Fellow at the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington D.C.
