to take part in taking apart, 2022, screenprinted artist book

Steph Kudisch is a trans genderfluid artist whose work uses mutated intertidal aesthetics and personal storytelling to dwell in in-betweens. Kudisch works as a 1:1 Artist Aide at Creative Growth Art Center & as a Lead Teacher with the San Francisco Children’s Art Center.

Kudisch was born with unilateral microtia and aural atresia, and is profoundly deaf in their undeveloped left ear. In recent sound sculptures they explore the complex implications and impacts of “deformity”.
