Chris Welsby - Artist interview

Chris Welsby talks about his film and installation work in this vodcast.
Streamline (1976), Seven Days (1974), Sky Light (1986), Trees in Winter (2006)

Welsby's work is characterised by a rigorous and experimental exploration of the relationship between natural systems inherent in the landscape, such as weather patterns and tidal flow, and the systematic methods and apparatus of filmmaking used to represent them.

He has been working primarily with digital media since 1993, and is currently developing and exhibiting interactive video installations with collaborators in the fields of computational poetics and interactive audio environments, most recently dance, with the project Heaven's Breath.

He lives on a small island in British Columbia and he is Professor of Fine Art Film And Video, at the School for the Contemporary Arts, Simon Fraser University, Vancouver, Canada.
