CAROLINE KOEBEL

Caroline Koebel makes experimental films and videos to provoke new modes of aesthetic and critical engagement with topics ranging from early cinema, technology and the maternal body through commodity culture, world affairs and representations of violence to human-animal interactions.

Other screenings include MadCat (USA), Edinburgh International Film Festival (Scotland), dança em foco (Brazil), Ladyfest Toronto (Canada), European Media Art Festival (Germany), Camagüey Festival of Video Art (Cuba), and Abstracta: International Exhibition of Abstract Cinema (Italy).
