About my artwork
Alison Williams is a South African video artist, filmmaker & painter based in Nelson Mandela Bay, RSA. Her works appear internationally in various Film Festivals, Galleries and Art Museums. She is concerned with visual emotion and the triumph of the human spirit, using mainly performance-based works with a strong tendency towards the dramatic. Her works are mostly one on one directions towards the viewing public, works produced in isolation or in remote areas.

Her main focus is the production of psychological works that disturb normal modes of being. She uses travel and personal life experience in her art, as she believes that life and art are inseparable entities. She is also the founder and director of Human Emotion Project which screens many international artists globally in 2009/2010.

Hi Alison I like the "Look at me" video, the sound track is spot on, reminds me of a flock of gulls in a chaotic  frenzie. If the psychological construct of narcissim had a sound Im sure it would be this.
