Danièle Wilmouth is fascinated by the unconscious choreography of ordinary life and how cinema reveals the miraculous spectacle of the everyday. She creates hybrid forms of 16mm film, video, installation, and live art that explore ritual, pattern, monotony, and impermanence. Wilmouth's works have been exhibited at a variety of venues and film festivals around the globe. Recently, a collection of her short films was included in the 2023 Chiayi International Art Documentary Film Festival in Taiwan. She was an ‘Artist in Focus’ at the 2022 Jumping Frames Hong Kong International Movement-Image Festival, as well as the 2016 BODY+ACT exhibition at the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Seoul, South Korea. In 2013, she was featured in Dance Films Association’s ‘Meet the Artist Series’ with a solo show at the Film Society of Lincoln Center. Retrospectives of Wilmouth's works have been held in Russia (2004, St. Petersburg International Dance Film Festival), and South Korea (2012, EXiS Film Festival, Korean Film Archives, Seoul). Danièle Wilmouth currently teaches at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago and the University of Chicago. Visit her website > https://www.danielewilmouth.com/
