Jennifer Ross

Born in 1986, in Liverpool, UK.

I seek to explore our boundaries of freedom and limitation by picking away at the threads that inform our lives. Manipulating appropriated materials I weave together sequences and narratives to explore the linguistic formations of self. By recoding found footage I aim to challenge a belief in a core true self; whether or not one exists. Through my work I hope to make my audience contemplate what they believe, moreover why they choose to believe.
