Bailey Scieszka (b. 1989 Detroit, USA) lives and works in Detroit, USA. Her videos, performances and paintings draw on the symbols and costumes of participatory culture. Often incorporating her alter-ego Old Put, a deranged clown, Scieszka mines political and fan ideologies, sports and brand logos in an exploration and excavation of the wild and often illogical exuberance of mass culture. Her latest solo shows were held at Bernheim, Zurich; EMPAC, Troy; Larrie, New York and at Stems, Brussels. She holds a BFA from The Cooper Union in New York (2011).
