Professional Bio
Hallie Bahn is an interdisciplinary artist and educator working in non-traditional and expanded animation. Using sculpture, stop motion, and digital 2D animation, her practice looks to dissolve the traditional boundaries of screen-based digital animation and create interactive, physical relationships between the art and the viewer. Bahn’s work has been exhibited and screened nationally and internationally, including at the Weisman Art Museum in Minneapolis, Minneapolis Institute of Art, Public Functionary in Minneapolis, Marinaro Gallery in New York, Center for Mediterranean Architecture in Chania, Greece, and the Museo Memoria y Tolerancia in Mexico City, Mexico. In 2020, she was a grant recipient of the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council’s Next Step Fund.
