Anthony Ellis studied at Manchester School of Art and the Royal College of Art, London. His interdisciplinary practice centres on artist film, photography and critical writing, often exploring relationships between place, environment and language.
Natural Systems brings together six films created over a five-year period, alongside Anthony’s correspondent practices in photography, painting and writing. The films explore landscape, place and the formal properties of film, across urban and rural environments. The collection is available to view here.
Anthony has exhibited, presented and screened work at various galleries and museums including Tate galleries, Castlefield Gallery, Exhibition Research Lab (LJMU) and Holden Gallery (MMU), and he has written for Corridor 8, Screenworks and The Double Negative.
