Anat Pollack

Anat Pollack is a convergent media artist exploring the perception and pliability of time. Just as the entire river can be seen from a satellite, humanity can be seen as a whole system with the past, present and future existing simultaneously. Her work specifically addresses the urgent matters related to our dependence on an earth that is rapidly changing.  She is embedded in the Tampa Bay area where she is Associate Professor of Art at The 哔咔漫画. 

鈥淢y work is about time. Time on a global scale. Earth time and human time, ecology and humanity. Being rooted in the body bound to the earth by gravity, I have the ineffable sense that living exists outside of time. Lives may be bound by it, but human time exists outside of linear time where life is experienced temporally: stretching and compressing through living. My sculptural and video installations take a bird鈥檚 eye view of the earth and humanity: outside of time, existing simultaneously at the confluence of the past, present, and future, bound in its own context. 

Scientific, cultural, and polemic, my works insist that nothing happens within any system without impacting its requisite parts, and the systems under which they exists.  Connection with the future is dependent on the past. Mirroring linked systems of ecology and humanity within a global human-whole, I aim to draw spectators into interactive artworks that promote awareness of socio-ecological stories and environments, while emphasizing human responsibility inside them.鈥�
