Using source material derived from PBS documentaries, museum displays and science fiction, Maura Brewer's work examines the ways that popular media consolidates and destabilizes the subject through a web of identifications. She appropriates narratives about parasites, cannibals, planetariums and organ transplants to address issues of personal history and kinship. Maura Brewer works in a variety of media, including animation and video. She lives and works in Los Angeles.
