Sami Hopkins is an artist, writer-researcher, and musician exploring the relationships between subjectivity and its social, material, and symbolic conditions. Their practice focuses on how sense and meaning are produced and articulated through these relationships, drawing on histories of consciousness, social formation, psychological inquiry and treatment, material experimentation, and speculative thought. Across mediums, they interpret received ideas of madness, magic, belief, agency, social creativity, and self-organization, often turning to ambivalence as a condition that animates psychic and social life and generates its own aesthetic logics.
