BIO

As an artist who works with experimental film and video installations, Aminatou's focus is how space transforms people and how people inhabit spaces. She conveys this idea by exploring the relationship between sound and image. Fieldwork is a crucial element in her artistic practice. After four years of working in Bolivia in ethnomusicology, she has started a new stage in Central Asia (Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan) where she has already spent four months in 2006 by collecting images and sounds to gain an understanding of the specific relationship between spaces and people. In 2007 she continued by doing video installation for the “Transformation of Space in Almaty” project with Artpologist group. Next works in preparation will come soon.
Her video installations were shown in the Soros center for contemporary Art, Almaty, and in Berkeley with Artpologist presentation of "Transformation of Space in Almaty" and since 2004 in the french festivals Les Instants vidéo numériques et poétiques, Les Ecrans Documentaires, Les Inattendus, Côté Court.
