Claudia Munksgaard-Palmqvist (b. 1992,) from Denmark works with experimental animation, film festival curation, underground screenings and teaching. Her work involves found footage, materials and stop-motion animation.

Her practice is centered around the exploration of the relationship between the human condition and film as a physical medium. Through collecting and assembling she makes montage films exploring humanity captured on film, the passing of time and film history. Her work focuses on filmmaking as a collaboration between conceptual ideas and the inherent qualities of the materials.

“How amazing it is to be able to observe life in motion—slowed down, sped up, looped, and stopped—to take it all in.”
