Annis Joslin

I’m a visual artist and filmmaker based in South East England, UK, with over 20 years’ experience working in socially engaged contexts. My work often emerges through dialogue and participatory encounters with others, research and engagement with archives, exploring the interplay between personal and shared experience.​ Across both process and outcome, my practice moves between and integrates analogue and digital methods. Hands-on, tactile approaches act as gestures of care, attentiveness and shared time with digital technologies extending these moments into shared, mediated forms. 

​

I work across drawing, animation, photography, performance, collage, storytelling, archival material, and 360 video, bringing these approaches together in film, installation, and lens-based work, including projects for performance, opera, and live orchestral contexts.

Collaboration and people are central to my practice. As an artist educator and facilitator, I embrace experimentation and the unexpected, producing work that pushes visual boundaries and narrative forms. I work on both commissioned and self-devised projects, intersecting a wide range of media including drawing, collage, zine-making, experimental photography, video, and filmmaking.

My work has been shown in the UK and internationally, with commissions from organisations including the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Glyndebourne, Tate Exchange, the National Trust, the Walker Art Gallery and Brighton & Hove Museums. Recent screenings include Luleå International Film Festival (Sweden), Courage Film Festival (Berlin), Fine Arts Film Festival (California) and New Digital Planetarium (Athens).
