Mickey Aloisio (b. 1992) employs various analog media, including projectors, film, CB radios, and receipt printers, among other alternative technologies, attempting to temper the immediacy of our hyper-digital, image-saturated world. He engages viewers “as participants in a complex performance of display, time, and legibility.” Predominantly working with photography, video, and sound, Aloisio attempts to present seemingly transgressive narratives that explore undercurrents of anticipation and longing, while also investigating the nuances of queer navigation across intergenerational communities.

Mickey Aloisio received his AAS from Suffolk County Community College, his BFA from the Fashion Institute of Technology, and his MFA from the School of Art at Yale University. He is the recipient of numerous awards and residencies, including the Eliza Prize, awarded by the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston (where he was also a Core Fellow in 2021-22), the Pride Photo Award, Amsterdam, the FST StudioProjects Fund for New York Artists, the Manhattan Graphics Center Scholarship award, and was recently named a visual arts grantee of the Café Royal Cultural Foundation NYC, in addition to Alice Kimball English Traveling Fellowship and the Critical Practice Research Grant, both awarded by the Yale School of Art. Aloisio was a 2023 Artist in the Marketplace (AIM) fellow at The Bronx Museum of the Arts in New York and will be featured in the forthcoming AIM Sixth Biennial, Bronx Calling. The artist lives and works in both Brooklyn, New York and Long Island, New York.
