Steve Gurysh is an artist and educator working in sculpture, computational craft, and art in the public realm. Recognized by a fluid approach to process and material, his site-specific research explores the scale of planetary phenomena, compressing expansive logics into potent objects containing wild materialities, digital to physical translations, social experiments, and speculative relationships to time. His projects are often developed in collaboration with scientists, municipal workers, other artists, craftspeople, communities, and non-human participants.

Gurysh recieved his MFA from the School of Art at Carnegie Mellon University and lives in Lawrence, Kansas where he is an Associate Professor of Sculpture in the Department of Visual Art at the University of Kansas.
