They currently serve as the director and Sr. Curator at Honor Fraser Gallery, a cultural hub examining our entangled relationships with art, science, and technology. As a visual artist, writer, and curator, Edgar facilitates cross-disciplinary projects of spectacular defiance and radical exuberance. Edgar studied painting, video, and social practice at Carnegie Mellon University (MFA) as well as sculpture and post-modern art history at The University of Georgia (BFA). They have shown in solo and group exhibitions throughout the United States as well as London, Berlin, Singapore, and Budapest. Their writing has been published by the Miller Institute for Contemporary Art, Contemporary Performance, and the Estonian Pavilion at the 59th Venice Biennale. They are a 2023/2024 Supercollider Art+Sci Ambassador, and executive board member of the New Media Caucus (NMC). Their exhibtions have been featured in Artforum, Frieze, Forbes, Hyperallergic, Art Papers, Art Review, The Los Angeles Times, CARLA, and NPR.Edgar works best in collaboration and often finds themself woven in between filmmakers, historians, archivists, data scientists, and interdisciplinary artists. They cross-examine through contradictions and prioritize the accumulation of fragments as one productive model to disrupt racist, sexist, and xenophobic claims to knowledge production. Most recently their projects survey the invaluable role queer/trans, Black, brown, and Indigenous communities play in shaping post-human imaginaries.
