Jennifer Martin is based in London, working with moving image, photography and installation. A driving question of Martin’s recent artwork involves the role of art and media, in the social and psychological construction of race and citizenship and its intersection with agency, nostalgia, and identification. In working with performers for moving image, she employs a methodology of rehearsal, improvisation, and negotiation of narrative in unpacking character, language, and context.
