Jessica Bardsley: An Interview

Jessica Bardsley is an artist-scholar working across film, writing, and studio art. Her interdisciplinary research takes an ecological approach to film and media within the global context of contemporary art. In addition to her work as a scholar, she is also an ecofeminist filmmaker. In this interview, Bardsley and interviewer Amy Beste discuss how cinema, poetry, photography, and the natural world have been inspiration for Bardsley, and how she uses autofiction–a combination of autobiography and fiction–in her current writing and moving image works.
