Kit Monkman is an artist and filmmaker based in York.
This site collects the experimental work — films, installations, video and mixed-reality pieces made, over twenty years, near the edge of what the tools could do. The argument behind it, and why it's gathered this way, is on the home page. The works themselves, and the questions each turned out to be asking, are in The Work. Ongoing thinking lives in the notebook.
Almost none of it was made alone. For fifteen years, from 2005, the installations were made with Tom Wexler as KMA — Flock, Congregation, Strange Attractors and the rest — work for public space that has its own home, kept as a record, at kma.co.uk. The films and the recent mixed-reality work carry their own crews, writers and collaborators, named where they belong on the works' own pages. The first person on this site means the thread of the thinking, not a claim on every hand that touched the work.
The commercial work is separate. The Knife That Killed Me (2014) accidentally produced a visual-effects company, ViridianFX, which still exists in York and does work I'm proud of. It helps pay for the experiments and has no further place here. This is not a portfolio.
