"Text and Commentary"

Beryl Korot was born in 1945 in New York City, where she lives and works. She graduated from Queens College in 1967 with a BA in English literature. In her practice, Korot explores how information is encoded and transmitted through systems of lines, grids, and patterns throughout human history. Drawing upon traditions and strategies found in weaving, print media, and video recording, the artist develops artworks that uniquely visualize the intersections of history, language, and technology.
