Rachy McEwan is an interdisciplinary artist and researcher based in London. In 2020, she graduated with a First Class Bachelor of Fine Art in Painting and Printmaking from The Glasgow School of Art, winning the RSA New Contemporaries Award. Recently, she earned a Distinction in her Master's in Material Futures at UAL: Central Saint Martins and was shortlisted for the Maison/0 LVMH Maison Award.

Rachy challenges traditional approaches to human perception, infusing her work with humour and absurdity. She explores how technology and art-making can be tools for rethinking our relationships with the land and the more-than-human world, intertwining environmental concerns with the political economy. Her research and techno-sensual artistic exploration open new discourses in cognition and machine learning, introducing concepts such as the sensorial ecology of intelligence, the machine microbiome, machine ecosystems, and biological machines.

Maintaining a practice focused on co-subjectivity, Rachy’s projects involve collaborations with engineers, arborists, scientists, perfumers, bacteria, fungi, and robots.
