Lyra Robinson (b. 2002) is a transmedia artist whose work spans performance, installation, and video.

Her practice is concerned with the mechanisms through which bodies are read, understood, and made legible in their interactions with surveillance technologies and data gathering. She explores the possibilities for disrupting established knowledge systems to imagine new forms of embodied agency.

Informed by Critical Posthumanism and Cyborg theory, Lyra investigates how corporeality, data, and visuality are entangled in contemporary visual infrastructures and platforms. Her work interrogates the multiplicities of power, sex, and sexuality that are enfolded into emergent human-machine ecologies.

She works primarily with ones and zeroes; manipulating experimental machine vision and deep learning processes to analyse the material and textural qualities of generative models built from mass data extraction, seeking to expose which parts of the models don't work, and what the data doesn't show.

She has recently exhibited at the Tate Modern, Photographer's Gallery, and the Victoria and Albert Museum.
