Elena Knox

Elena Knox lives and works in Tokyo. Her projects present ultra-contemporary scenarios where humans live deeply enmeshed with synthesized things. Her recent works use cutting-edge Japanese robots to audition roles of identity and belief in technoscience futures. Others explore new visions of gender and cyber-organics in dreamlike, stripped-back situations. Knox won the Apex Art New York international curatorial competition for her exhibition “Can you fuck it?” – The Fembot Phenomenon (2022). Her recent exhibitions include the Seoul International New Media Festival (2024), Venice Art Night (2024), Ars Electronica (2023), Taiwan International Video Art Exhibition (2023), Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale (2022), ICC Annual (2022), Bangkok Art Biennale (2020), Yokohama Triennale (2020), and Future and the Arts (2019–20, Mori Art Museum). She holds a PhD in media art from UNSW Sydney.Last Updated: 2025.07
