About the director
Ruth Hayes came to animation through drawing and printmaking and has produced in film, digital video and pre-cinema formats including flipbooks, zoetropes and praxinoscopes. A committed experimentalist, she has explored cameraless techniques and visual phenomena, engaged in historical and political critique, mined personal experience, investigated relationships between human and non-human worlds and contributed to collaborative and improvised expanded cinema performances. Ruth is Faculty Emerita at the Evergreen State College, where she taught animation for 25 years, integrating it into broadly interdisciplinary courses that included the natural and physical sciences, the visual arts, and cultural studies.
