Jem Shearer is an interdisciplinary Glasgow-based artist working across movement, sound, and installation.

Emerging from grief, endurance, failure and futurity, their practice traces fragments of dreams, gestures, hauntings and digital residues to conjure queer technologies of survival. Using decay, distortion, noise and repetition, they construct speculative environments from found materials and automatic practices that infect heteronormative modes of thought, form, space and death. Their work lives in the space between clarity and collapse, unearthing a queer past as a method for contaminating the present (and future) through speculative, diasporic and technological means.
