Bailey Hikawa and Scotty Wagner

Emotional.Store is the collaborative duo of artists Bailey Hikawa and Scotty Wagner. They create large scale, multimedia projects that weave audience members through a viscerally weird conversation around the interplay between systems that drive technological progress and the phenomenology of engagement in a digitally and physically hybridized world. Their work humorously deconstructs the influence of technological innovation and capitalism on contemporary life and culture through comedic storytelling, magical language, and technological seduction. At Bemis, they will work on a new performance that blends live video with pre-recorded video.
