Anna Ådahl is a visual artist and researcher working in various mediums such as film, installations and performance. She uses the editing tools of assemblage and montage where found footage meets newly produced images, where ready-mades are used as props in spatial narratives and the body is used as an investigative tool in staged performances. Over more than a decade the notion and politics of crowds has been central in her artistic practice. Her fine art practice-based research, Inside the Postdigital Crowds, at the Royal College of Art in London addressed the aesthetics and politics of the digital conditions in which contemporary crowds are operated and governed. She is currently pursuing a fine art practice-based postdoc and a funded (Swedish Research Council) research project, in collaboration with Prof. Stefan Jonsson, titled Collective Agency in an era of Automation at REMESO/IKOS, Linköping University and the Royal Institute of Art (KKH), Stockholm.
