Director of Digital Programmes at the V&A Museum, Alex Flowers, interviews Emma Neuberg about her animated artworks for the V&A Online Archive.
Since 1992, when Neuberg interned in Prague with Jan Svankmajer’s creative team, she has created animated artworks for digital media and artistic experimentation. In the 1990s, her early animations were hand-made with paper at the Film_makers Co-op in Primrose Hill but over time and once she was a researcher in Textiles at Chelsea College of Art during the 00s these merged with digital.
All the works featured in the V&A online archive illuminate her signature colour blends and kinetic plays on symmetry. The trail-blazing format allows for animated sequences of the artist’s colour works and painting on to textiles.
Alex Flowers selects Vasarely’s Blends 2 (2013), Exploded Vase (2013) and Inheritance I (2010) to feature online after Neuberg’s work with digital pattern and fabrics in the new Digital Classroom at the V&A.
