Barbara T. Smith

Through intimate interviews, provocative art, and rare, historical film and video footage, this feature documentary reveals how art addressing political consequences of discrimination and violence, the Feminist Art Revolution radically transformed the art and culture of our times.

Multimedia documentary project profiling pioneering, emerging, innovative and otherwise compelling Los Angeles-based female artists, philosophers and social entrepreneurs.

A video travelogue through love, liberatory technology, social and personal mythology, and the pleasures and rigors of making life into art told in part through the pixelated beauty of the videophone. The film sees Smith from 1991 through 1993 sending messages to her lover, physician Roy Walford, while he is sealed inside the Biosphere 2 and serving as its resident physician.

In this landmark performance, Barbara T. Smith collaborated with computer scientist Richard Rubenstein to generate 3,000 unique computer-produced snowflake prints. Transporting the prints to the twenty-first floor of a Las Vegas hotel, Smith released them into the air, transforming data, chance, and technology into a fleeting public event.
