CARTEL and Co.

Amy Gwatkin is a British filmmaker and photographer who’s work explores the relationship and power dynamics between subject, audience and image maker. Often shifting roles and building multi-layered stories with movement and performance integral components to the artists discovery and key to her visual language.

Working collaboratively with her subjects brings a sense of freedom to her work, which results in tangible raw and visible synergy. Amy’s interests dive into tensions between fantasy and reality, and blur the lines of perceptual beauty, using a direct visual approach derived from the artist’s experience with fine art and documentary.
