Merging the ever-classical “woman-as-subject” with a creative self-­psychoanalysis, the New York-­based visual artist Carla Gannis‘ latest solo show A Subject Self-­Defined turns her unique selfie series into 15 GIF-style videos.

The exhibit is the continum of her 52-week self-promotional drawing experiment, The Selfie Drawings. For TRANSFER Gallery she manuevers the selfies into 4K videos with rhythmicly looped soundtracks by Christopher Knollmeyer and Christopher Rutledge. Gannis tells The Creators Project, “Particularly with this project, looped motion heightens the narrative impact and moves from a graphic novel­like aesthetic into a more cinematic one.”
