Anna Madeleine is a Sydney based emerging artist working in stop-motion animation and mixed media. She graduated from ANU School of Art in 2007 and is currently a PhD candidate in Media Arts at College of Fine Arts, UNSW, and a writer for Artist Profile and editorial assistant for Art Almanac.
Her current work explores the effects of digital communication technologies on our personal expression in interpersonal relationships, using tactile media and physical form to present a co-evolution of old and new technology and offset the familiarity of the digital in new media art.
She has had solo exhibitions in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, and Montreal, as well as several group exhibitions in Australia and overseas, and has completed residencies with Insight Radical (Melbourne University), Sydney Artspace, Splendid Arts Lab, Kala Arts Institute (Berkeley), Canberra Contemporary Art Space, and PhotoAccess.
