Biography

Dr. Sandra Lim is an academic and an award-winning multi-media film and video artist.  She holds an MA in Film Studies from University College Dublin, and a PhD in Art and Design from the University of Brighton in the UK, with a focus on research through practice for the moving image.  She regularly writes critical reviews on a variety of films for digital and print platforms and has also been making short experimental documentary art films for over 10 years.  Her practice-based research is informed by British avant-garde and experimental cinema traditions, and is characterized as being performative, musical, and grounded in autoethnographic and archival practice.  Her films and art often address political realities and relations experienced at the levels of the personal and the global, much of which has been screened and exhibited in gallery, academic and film festival settings, both locally and internationally.  Her moving image work is catalogued and distributed by the Canadian Filmmakers Distribution Centre Toronto, the Canadian Film and Video streaming on demand platform VUCAVU, as well as the Virtual Museum of Asian Canadian Cultural Heritage VMACCH.
