Day 16 > Anabela Costa

Jailbird – TRT 5:59

For some years I work with experimental software ARTIE with which I generate image and sequences of animate moving images. This software was not designed to animation, anyway I could turn it over and I make a fully exploitation of its possibilities.

ANABELA COSTA is a visual artist, her work was subject of several solo exhibitions. From the eighties she becomes interested and moves progressively towards the digital image. Since 2000 she is conducting research in the field of experimental film, based on two axes: the moving image -the aesthetics of representation of movement, and the formalization of thematic and scientific concepts.
She made a few experimental animation combining these two research areas: Web, TIME, LIQST_liquid state, and Landscape, In Motion, which were programmed and awarded in international festivals devoted to avant-garde cinema, animation, media arts and video-arts.

She is also involved in international conferences where she presents these movies or articles about the image and its contemporary transformations. Living in Paris since 2010, she continued her artistic and technology research by working with experimental software in the generation of images -still images or moving image. Working with CUBE an Art and Creation Center and with the research team Aviz, that has as main research themes _perception,cognition,interaction and visualization at INRIA, Saclay, (which is the French National Institute for computer science and applied mathematics). This research team has made available to Anabela Costa an experimental software for generating stills and moving images. With this partnership her latest films were awarded with some prizes in animation, media arts in the United States, Australia and Europe,also selected for presentation in the Symposium of Electronic Arts ISEA, between other selections. Her latest research widens with the design of films, moving image, media art in general for public spaces in led screens, performing arts and Virtual Reality projects.
