See inside the lives of two excellent artist/writers, Harry Dodge and Charles Yu. 

Harry Dodge, an American visual artist and writer whose interdisciplinary practice is characterized by its explorations of relation, materiality and ecstatic contamination, was the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2017. His first book, a work of literary non-fiction entitled My Meteorite, or Without the Random There Can Be No New Thing is forthcoming on Penguin Press (2020). Dodge’s sculpture, drawing and video work has been exhibited at many venues nationally and internationally, including solo shows: User, at Callicoon Fine Arts (NY, 2019); Works of Love at JOAN (LA, 2018), a show which also traveled to Tufts University Art Gallery (2019); Mysterious Fires at Grand Army Collective (Brookyn, 2017); The Inner Reality of Ultra-Intelligent Life, at Armory Center for the Arts, Pasadena (2016); The Cybernetic Fold at Wallspace (NY, 2015); Meaty Beaty Big and Bouncy at The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum (CT, 2013).

Charles Yu is the author of three books, including the novel How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe (a New York Times Notable Book and a Time magazine best book of the year). He received the National Book Foundation’s 5 Under 35 Award and was nominated for two Writers Guild of America Awards for his work on the HBO series, Westworld. He has also written for shows on FX, AMC, and HBO. His fiction and nonfiction have appeared in The New Yorker, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and Wired, among other publications.

Inside the Writers House is a candid, casual, and crafty online event created and hosted by Alex Dawson. Acclaimed authors are Skyped in from all over the world, and so viewers get an inside peek on their lives, their writing spaces, and their pets.
