Q&A at 8:45pm via live chat with the artist follows.

The program includes nine short videos made from 2005 to today including
works of 3D animation, diy sci-fi, experimental documentary, and works
involving green screen by Meredith Drum addressing issues such as the
environment and global warming, feminism, anthropology, and the history of
cinema, with particular attention towards endangered species and cultures.

Drum’s early videos display qualities of works representing an independent
and very personal form of cinema, while her latest and perhaps most oneiric
works, composed through 3D animation, were prompted by her “frustration
with the misogynistic, militaristic, racist, and consumer-driven visual
culture that dominates many commercially produced virtual worlds.”

The program also includes a short documentary of A.I.R. gallery, a
groundbreaking art space — still active — founded in New York in 1972
exclusively run by and showing work by women artists.

A live Q&A with Drum and the online audience via chat follows the screening
at 8:45pm ET
