Callum Hill is a Bristol-based artist working predominantly in film. Embedded with a documentary impulse, her works take root from real characters and historical events, which are refracted through the lenses of political and psychological consciousness. Often working with techniques of symbolism, metaphor, and cyclical or repetitive temporalities, Callum’s recent work has explored the subject of physical and emotional borders, fire, landscapes of pressure, and the political terrains of the UK and Europe.

Although her practice has increasingly focused on factual starting points that are direct, timely, and accessible, Callum weaves these references together through her own intuition and memory, embracing a poetics of the image and of the mind that highlight her role as the composer of each narrative.

Hill’s previous solo exhibitions include De La Warr Pavillion, Bexhill-on-Sea, LUX, London, and PS² Gallery, Belfast, and her work has been screened at film festivals internationally, including International Film Festival Rotterdam and Images Toronto. She is the recipient of the Berwick New Cinema Award at Berwick Film & Media Arts Festival (2018), The Aesthetica Artist Film Award (2016) and participated in Film London’s FLAMIN Fellowship (2018).
