Davina Semo works between installation, film, drawing, and writing, to explore the inner worlds and hearts of teenage girls, their friends, and the changing and scary world they live in. Storytelling is used as the organizing presence of the work.  Story as opposed to narrative, allowing for a queer, non-linear entry-point into how the rational mind turns to the unconscious mind in moments of urgency or panic. Davina’s work is assembled in such a way as to provide a structured improvisation between the audience and the work, wherein the audience is part viewer, part explorer, part voyeur, and part accomplice.
Davina Semo is a writer, filmmaker, and mixed-media artist.  Born in Washington, DC, Davina is currently pursuing her MFA in Visual Arts at the University of California, San Diego.  She received a BA in Visual Arts and Creative Writing at Brown University in 2003.  She has exhibited in Providence (RI), San Diego (CA), Los Angeles (CA), New York City, and Tijuana (Mexico).
