I am a current grantee in the field of Animation for the Research and Arts U.S. Fulbright Scholarship. My project Visionary Abstraction in Germany: Stop-Motion Animation and Transformative Archive embraces interdisciplinary approaches to museums, archives, gender studies, and moving images. I will conduct creative archival research in Berlin, Germany while producing stop-motion animation, with the ambition of giving materials a sense of lasting life and significance.
