Martha Colburn

Martha Colburn is an American multimedia artist known for her vibrant, politically charged animations that blend stop-motion, collage, and paint-on-glass techniques. She began experimenting with Super 8 film in the 1990s, developing a distinctive DIY aesthetic that fuses punk energy with historical and cultural critique. Her work often addresses themes such as war, addiction, and American mythology through surreal, densely layered visuals. Colburn's films have been featured at major venues including the Venice Biennale, Cannes Film Festival, and MoMA.
