“我所有的作品都是为反抗压迫和审查制度而爆发的。我在宣泄愤怒,以抵制被扫到文化边缘的关键问题的沉默。我把社会的身体翻过来,让它的外部生长成为更大的器官。”
——Lynn Hershman Leeson

自20世纪60年代以来,Hershman Leeson一直在思考我们与机器的联系。从更传统的形式如绘画、油画和拼贴画开始,她制作蜡像,然后是视频和使用激光光盘、触摸屏(80年代)、网络摄像头、人工智能的艺术作品,以及最近与科学家合作的水净化系统和DNA。她专注于技术、媒体和假象在当代文化中的作用,持续钻研的问题现在被认为是社会运作的关键:人类和技术之间的关系、身份、监视,以及使用媒体作为授权工具来反对审查和政治压迫。在过去的五十年里,她在摄影、录像、电影、表演、人工智能、生物艺术、装置和互动以及网络媒体艺术等领域做出了开创性的贡献。
Hershman Leeson是互联网最有经验的公民之一,其作品一直领先于时代,具有先见之明地超越个人的身体和经验的限制,描述了技术和肉体之间 "不断交织的关系"。她是第一位使用Videodisc(DVD的前身)推出互动作品的艺术家(Lorna,1983-84),也是第一位将触摸屏界面纳入其艺术作品的艺术家(Deep Contact,1984-1989)。她的网络机器人艺术装置(The Difference Engine #3, 1995-1998)是她将其艺术作品扩展到传统艺术领域之外的一个例子。

Hershman Leeson在人前既热情又神秘,从最早的时候就对技术和科学的发展持有尖锐的批评态度,探索它们被强权滥用的可能性,以及它们提出的乌托邦承诺。她总是从一个非常个人的角度来处理它们与我们身份的关系,进行着激进的身份探索。
当右翼身份主义联盟在混乱、颠倒的言辞中篡改解放战略,以集会反对失去特权、霸权文化受到的 "威胁",以及政治正确的 "负担 "时,在一向由男性主导的艺术领域,女性和非二元身份的身份政治问题与之紧密关联。作为女性先锋艺术家,她的艺术经历了几十年的相对默默无闻,直到72岁时才逐渐获得从事类似追求的男性同龄人长期以来所获得的赞誉。在她的作品中,可以看见现代生活的基本划分,即我们的身体本身和我们的“线上”存在。她提醒我们,两者都受制于父权制和国家的法律,但也是重塑的沃土。
