Erik Peters (he/they) is an interdisciplinary artist and artistic researcher engaging with the worldbuilding potentialities seeded in the act of storytelling, uncovering how speculative fiction can germinate new universes of being through collaborative formats of making, researching and staging. They weave pathways between the possible worlds persistency emerging from a world in planetary crisis. Their collaborative practice is situated in an interdependent web of ecologies and technologies, human and non-human beings. Together, they create immersive scenarios about possible futures; imaginative worlds staged as spatial and interactive installations, workshops, performances and audiovisual works. These speculative artefacts are created with technologies and materials such as machine learning, game engine tools, ceramics, 3d printing and 3d scanning methods.

Erik is the Uroboros 2024 Fellow and will show his fellowship work as part of the Feral Nest program.
