Ej Nussbaum

Ej Nussbaum earned their MFA at University of Illinois at Chicago and their BA from Hampshire College. Their filmmaking practice traverses both analogue and digital time machines. They use humour and sentimentality to question how larger power systems are embodied and contested in the intimate realms of desire and memory. Whether engaging in speculative conversations with family members or historical revolutionaries, they find value in imagining the presumed impossible and re-shaping the static presentations of histories and self narratives we too readily give to others.
