“I have been making films for 13 years, and have found a continuing interest in discovery, seeing, light, and quests of the imagination. I am also concerned about the political issues of being a Ukrainian, bi-coastal, feminist, woman artist who also prints photographs, performs, and writes. As part of my Material-Film series, I will present Bamboo Xerox, a film installation.” –B.H.
