Chris Piraino is an Arizona‑based video artist and sculptor whose work merges projected image, sound, and physical structure into immersive, hybrid installations. His practice sits at the intersection of moving image and object-making, using video not simply as a screen‑based medium but as a material that interacts with space, surfaces, and sculptural forms.
Working frequently within experimental sound and multimedia communities, he creates environments where image and audio operate as equal partners. His projections often spill across built structures or custom surfaces, transforming them into shifting visual fields. This approach gives his work a tactile, architectural quality where video becomes something you inhabit rather than merely watch.
He collaborations with artists in the Phoenix arts scene which highlight his interest in cross‑disciplinary creation, live performance, and the blending of visual and sonic experimentation.
Whether presented in galleries, performance venues, or collaborative events, his video art emphasizes atmosphere, structure, and the interplay between moving light and physical form, inviting viewers into spaces where sound and image reshape one another.
Chris is a co-founder of Sound Art Arizona and Playground Arts.
