UBS 12 X 12: New Artists New Work February 12, 2011

'12 x 12: New Artists/New Work' is a series of monthly exhibitions featuring emerging Chicago artists. Shooting in 16mm film and exhibiting in digital video, Bass's experimental films are characterized by intricate, cyclical structures that emphasize sound and visual textures over traditional narratives. Making use of both non-professional actors and performance artists, her films often reveal a subtle surrealist influence in their focus on odd, inexplicable actions and situations. For her exhibition, Bass presents her film and video work in a site-specific installation.
