Geilinger makes pattern-based and print-inspired short videos using the moving body. She uses effects to separate the performers from their backgrounds then animates the human movement trajectories. These are scaled up for moving fabric-like repeat patterns and scaled down to reveal individual human endeavors.

Passionate about drawing her body became a vehicle for that inscription process; the body as a moving mark maker. Her approach takes inspiration from early artists’ cinema, painting and printing processes, musical structures and woven and printed textiles.

She has video production, post-production and performance skills that she uses in the making of her work.

She projects her films onto architecture; and shows them at film festivals, galleries and clubs. She also gives university lectures and delivers papers at conferences.

She was awarded a distinction for her ‘MA Art and Design by Independent Project’ at University of Brighton in September 2009. She also has a BA in Performance Art (Contemporary Dance) and continues to study contemporary dance and ballet.

Fiona has worked as a Picture Editor and Network Presentation Director at Channel 4 and is now, freelance, making title sequences, graphics and editing for BBC and Channel 4.
