Artist Bio
Bun Stout is an Indianapolis-born, Chicago-based artist. Their multidisciplinary artwork mostly lives within queer nightlife, the bus there and back, and private spaces of their collaborators. Their practice collages physical and digital media to tell stories about imaginary futures and catalyze brief experiences of transformation. The resulting artworks are sculpture, video, augmented reality couture, fashion editorials, and the lived experiences of the wearers themselves.

Stout has spoken about their work at the Kinsey Institute and is a recipient of the Southern Graphics Council International Undergraduate Fellowship. Exhibitions include interactive installations at Soho House Chicago, Cucalorus Film Festival, Ars Electronica and the Pacific Northwest College of Art. They recently received an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
