Zoe Beloff

Zoe Beloff works across a wide range of media, including film, stereoscopic projection performance, interactive media, installation and drawing. Seeking to graphically manifest the mind's unconscious processes in her work, she uses both archaic apparatuses and new analog/digital hybrids. Beloff has written that she considers herself a medium, an interface between the living and the dead, the real and the imaginary. With each project she aims to connect the present with the past, to create new visual languages where, she writes, "modern media will once again be invested with the uncanny."

Beloff, who has directed many independent films, has also created numerous interactive digital media projects. Her interest in early cinema has led her to explore links between 19th-century industrial mechanics and 20th- and 21st-century computer technologies, in the transition from the "real" world to virtual space. Writes Beloff: "Interactive cinema is itself an emerging media. Its language is in the process of being invented. This is my ongoing project."
