Daria Martin: Sensorium Tests

Daria Martin (born 1973) is a contemporary American artist and filmmaker based in London since 2002. Working primarily in 16mm film, her work has been exhibited at the Hammer Museum, The New Museum, the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, and Australian Centre for Contemporary Art. Martin's 16mm films address the space between disparate states of being–levels of consciousness, the internal and the external, and the body, mind, and object–working to unravel viewer's learned habits of perception. Martin's films also often explore the differences and similarities between other artistic mediums including painting, performance, dance, and sculpture. Some subjects Martin's work touches on include dreams, feminism, sensation, mythology, and mirror-touch synesthesia.

Biography

Daria Martin Daria Martin One of the Things That Makes Me Doubt Art

Daria Martin was born in San Francisco, CA. Martin earned a BA in humanities from Yale University (1995), and an MFA from UCLA (2000). She is represented by Maureen Paley Gallery in London. Martin's artistic journey began with abstract paintings, which she describes as "formal and strict." She was drawn to film as she found it gave her the freedom to explore time, space and artistic mediums.  Martin drew inspiration from a range of early twentieth-century artists and choreographers such as Oskar SchlemmerVarvara StepanovaAlexander Rodchenko.  Her films are created organically, often taking on a collaborative process between the selected actors, choreographers and musicians she chooses to work with.
