Catherine Ashley is a multimedia designer and performance artist. Her work challenges conventional perceptions of time, exploring how biological processes and their relationship to subjective experiences of temporality inform cultural structures and perspective. Incorporating backgrounds in film, sound, animation, design, object making and theatre performance, she creates installation based work situated under the umbrella of time, gesture and performance emphasized by visual and auditory experiences.
Ashley holds a MFA in Digital + Media from Rhode Island School of Design and a BA in Film + Media Arts and Theatre Arts from American University, and works as a professor, freelance designer and musician.
