Chester Dols
Chester Dols is a transdisciplinary designer and artist based in Brooklyn, NY. He is the Director of the Visible Futures Lab and co-founder of cofutures. His current research focuses on the development and investigation of gendered mediums, objects, and spaces. Chester identifies as a queer futurist, exploring queerness as not only a product of gender politics, but as an identity and a framework for a future that is multivalent, metamorphic, and essentially chimeric. Since queerness is always in tension with what is normative and conscious, queerness exists at the periphery of now, closer to the future.

Chester teaches and mentors new media studies at Fordham University, New York City College of Technology, School of Visual Arts, and New York University. He holds a Master of Professional Studies from NYU ITP and a Bachelors of Arts in Architecture from Columbia University. Read more about his 2017 BDC project Beecosystem.
