Annie Rapstoff is interested in responding to place and the human condition. She examines relationships with other beings in the widest sense of the word, including animals, plants and trees. At present she is exploring possibilities of self transformation, the interplay and impact on nature of human intervention, animism and what is heard, felt, and experienced through the often unnoticed. Her current work focuses on birds in particular postures, behaviour and human created myths such as The Magpie, The Albatross and The Cuckoo. Annie works with performance, text, film, video and stitch. She has shown work internationally and has been in receipt of several Arts Council England grants.
