Feminist Form is happy to present film and video work
by Olympia-based artist Bridget Irish. A Northwest native,
Irish has been making short films and videos for 20 years.

For Feminist Form, Irish will be showing some rarely screened early work
on Super 8 and 16mm film, followed by more recent work on video.
Her work is primarily non-narrative and often abstract in nature,
presenting subjects through such approaches as single frame animation,
portraiture, performance, and documentary. Her artistic practice also includes
performance, photography, installation, visual art, music, and writing.
