Miranda Pennell
* 1963 in London.
With her compositions of images Miranda Pennell, originally educated in New York and Amsterdam as a dancer, doesn’t merely create a dance in pictures, but also dance with pictures – from emotional situations to tranquil moments that manage to contrast the movement. Pennell’s main objective is always the relationship between (dance-like) movement, the surroundings and sound. Her films often found their way onto the screens of festivals and received awards world wide (most recently 2008 in Rotterdam). In 2006 the Kurzfilmtage Oberhausen dedicated a “Profile”-Programme to her. Furthermore her works are increasingly shown within the context of art – e.g. in galleries and exhibitions. Miranda Pennell lives and works in London.
