Kevin Brennan (b. 1993)

Brennan’s practice is centred around filmmaking, taking various forms from short films and video installations to feature length documentaries.

Using a variety of cinematic genres, and visual languages from gaming and the online media, Brennan’s work speaks to a shift in human ontology and identity - tracing the fragility and disintegration of empathy.
