Jennifer Embelton is an emerging video artist and filmmaker from Brisbane, Australia.
She is currently completing a BFA in Film, Television and New Media at Queensland University of Technology. Her work attempts to explore and challenge ideals of beauty and normality both in film style and in subject matter through an exploitation of digital video, 35mm film and stock footage.
Her works are concerned with challenging narrative expectations by reconstructing the aesthetics of her work to engage in a dialogue with the viewer. Her images can exist in isolation, but when viewed together they provoke a contrast between everyday themes of normality, banality, beauty and destruction.
