Grant Worth grew up in the forests of Central Wisconsin. In 2001, he received his BFA in Photography and Imaging from Tisch School of the Arts at New York University. Grant is enthusiastic about sound and image, machine elves, transformations, and the trajectories of human beings. Collections built from family trips, generous friends I’ll never meet, and living room dance floors generate both the input and the formal result of my work. I’m interested in creating environments and experiences which allow us to re-explore our own world and the way we relate to one another as mother and father, lovers and strangers, artists and adventurers, astronomer and star. Worth was represented by John Connelly Presents (NYC) until the gallery’s closure in 2010. Collaboratively, he enjoys specializing in mistakes with beauty and lifestyle collective, FCKNLZ. Most recently, his Polaroid work was featured in the The Polaroid Years: Instant Photography and Experimentation. Currently, he is finishing post production on his first short film “My Life As A Woman,” loosely based on Roseanne Barr’s autobiography of the same title. missionfantastic.com
