Esther Splett is a multidisciplinary artist and musician who uses sound, video and performance to create art drawing from obsessive personal themes. In their art practice, they perform grotesque femme identity from the delirious perspective of an outsider, drawing from the lens of madness and monstrosity in relation to queer identity, sexuality, and the worlds of contemporary music and art. They play experimental music under their own name, incorporating performance art and electronic music to address themes such as desire and masochism, emotional instability and conflicted explorations of gender, describing themself as “the ghost of Emily Brontë resurrected as a bottle blonde synth player who just wants to have fun but can't.”
They’re inspired by RPGs, tabletop roleplaying, science fiction and speculative fiction/fantasy and are interested in exploring the intersections between roleplaying, enacting characters in a virtual or digital environment and performance art.
