Anatomy Lessons
Work at CLASI, Centre for Lens based Arts at Swansea Institute
Ingham was raised in the US but has lived and worked predominantly in Britain,
since 1987. She is an Inter-disciplinary lens-based artist, working across
the mediums of photography, film, video and digital imaging.
Her work is reflective of a postmodern concern for the interface between theory
and practice and incorporates site-specific installations, new media, and temporary
public art projects. These include gallery based exhibitions, publications, experimental
film and video, and durational live-streamed works. She is also Head of the newly
established Centre for Lens-Based Arts Practice & Research at Swansea Institute
in Wales in the U.K. Her work has been widely exhibited and published in Europe
and North America and her latest touring exhibition and publication Anatomy Lessons,
was published in 2004 by Dewi Lewis Publishing.
The Vanitas project at the Waag follows on from Anatomy Lessons and also forms
part of Ingaham’s ongoing research into the relationship between art and
death. She will shortly be publishing an essay on the Vanitas still life in the
forthcoming book Still Life by IRIS international Centre for Womens Photography
2005.
