Anita Ponton is a multi-disciplinary artist from London. Educated at Central Saint Martins School of Art and at Goldsmiths College (London) where she gained her doctorate. Trained as a painter/sculptor, she now works principally in performance, situating her body as site, as process and as object.
Her work has been exhibited/performed internationally, including events and shows at the ICA (London), Franklin Furnace (New York), Oriel Mostyn Gallery (Wales), the Venice Biennale and the Liljevalch Kunsthalle (Stockholm). Performance festivals include the Exit Festival (Helsinki), 7A11D festival (Toronto), Edgy Women (Montreal), Mountain Standard Time Festival (Calgary). Her practice is currently concerned with the relationship of the body in performance to technology and to feminine representation.
