Seth Augustine's artwork begins by engaging with people, either through social experimentation, group participation, or public performance. Parameters help define the limits of these interactions, and in doing so generate an open space where unexpected outcomes develop. Informed by the newfound discoveries and insights learned from these engagements he creates artwork that traverses a wide range of formats including: artifact, sculpture, photography, installation, video, and drawing.
Most recently, Augustine has been living and traveling in China. In 2009 he collaborated with Shanghai-based artist Shi Yong on an extensive project working with migrant Chinese laborers. This project and other China-related projects have been exhibited in several venues both in China and the U.S.
He has earned his B.F.A. from Cornell University and his M.F.A. from the University of California, San Diego. Currently, Augustine instructs 3-D Design courses at California State University Northridge.
