Molmol Kuo is an artist, educator and researcher based in Brooklyn. With a background in documentary filmmaking and a penchant for “doing weird things with electricity,” ahe spends most of her time working with machines and computers. She builds unique device for unique problems. She creates tools that help her tell stories about people, cities, sometimes even objects, and aims to put smiles on people’s faces. When she is not in front of a computer or a soldering station, she volunteers for the Sanctuary for Families in New York to advocate for victims of violence and sex trafficking, and she works with survivors of gender-based violence to rebuild their lives beyond trauma.
