Sean Miller's work explores situations, practices, and information that sustain and define existing power structures in contemporary art and politics. Miller employs obsessive activities, absurd scenarios, humor, and extreme aesthetics, in order to introduce objects and events that question existing categorical and organizational methods within these hierarchal structures. Miller has produced major works and solo exhibitions utilizing photography, painting, sculpture, installation, performance, and web-based work. Miller's processes involve the utilization of collaboration, collective action, multi-media art, relational aesthetics, and alternative art venues. Miller is a Florida-based artist, curator, and an Assistant Professor at University of Florida where he teaches sculpture and the Workshop for Art Research and Practice. Prior to moving to Florida, Miller lived in Seattle, Washington where he co-founded Soil Collective and Gallery and worked at the Seattle Art Museum and King County Art Commission.

Miller's current work involves The John Erickson Museum of Art (JEMA), a six-year old museum and a conceptual, generative, art project. As a location variable museum, JEMA regularly works with international artists to realize projects that require mobility, multi-destinational site-specificity. By moving with stealth and agility, JEMA offers a vital, yet affordable, museum space and supports the quick, decisive, and efficient delivery of art to the viewing public. JEMA's galleries are traditionally housed in a series of 16'x12'x9' aluminum carrying cases however recent museum initiatives have provided several other unconventional spaces (in proposal). The museum's mission is to display and collect innovative and provocative contemporary art and/or offer exhibitions that destabilize traditional notions about the nature of art and art practice. JEMA's design allows it to perform and embody numerous aspects of art and art practice in a simultaneous manner. JEMA is a museum, display case, crate, exhibition space, sculpture, photographic series, performance, installation, site-specific project, collaboration and web-based project. It involves nearly all the realms of art practice and seeks to revitalize the roles of curator, artist, and viewer. JEMA has exhibited and collaborated with artists such as Yoko Ono, Ben Patterson, John Feodorov, Gregory Green, Kristin Lucas, Arnold Mesches, Andrea Robbins/Max Becher, Sergio Vega, and more.
