My work is accessible in a universal way via its wit and mischief. It is grounded in genuine experimentation of the core mechanisms of motion and time-based art. I go to the heart of every question and start from zero, reinventing core premises with my own perspective. My Non Stop Stop Motion works reinvent a contemporary expanded cinema and deal with the poetic mechanics of persistence of vision. My works with everyday objects (shoes, brooms, pots etc.) deal with social paradoxes and let us see a familiar world from a different perspective.
Anna Vasof is an architect, media, and time-based artist. Since 2004 her videos and short movies have been presented in several festivals, some of them winning distinctions. In 2020 she finished her Ph.D. thesis about a cinematographic technique that she developed with the title Non Stop Stop Motion. She is now working on designing and building innovative mechanisms for producing critical videos, films, actions, and installations
