Bio:
Willy Chyr is an artist working at the intersection of art and science. His work spans a variety of media, including web, print, and installation. Drawing inspiration
from both cultural artifacts and scientific knowledge, he creates platforms and systems that replicate processes found in nature. Willy holds a B.A. degree in Physics and Economics from the University of Chicago. While a student at the University, he joined Le Vorris & Vox Circus and performed as a juggler, unicyclist, and magician. It was during his time in the circus that Willy learned how to twist balloons. He is currently based in Chicago.
