Anne Murray creates video installations, social projects, and interactive participatory collections. Most recently, she is known for her project, What are you howling about?, which is a collection of people’s fears recorded in Algeria and combined with video to bridge connections between the United States, Europe, and North Africa through the investigation of emotions we all share and which often become the root of prejudice. Through her video work, she presents our fears as a common thread in humanity rather than a means to divide us.
Murray has exhibited her work extensively throughout Europe, in North Africa, Asia, and the United States.
She has published articles in the Arts & International Affairs Official Journal of the University of Edinburgh, Happening Magazine (Paris), and Ineffable Magazine of Algerian Art and Culture (Algiers).
