Vertna West holds a Ph.D. in Media & Communication Studies with an emphasis on Film & Philosophy, an MFA in Film & Video Production with a Complementary Study in Mass Communication, and a BFA in Film & Video Production. Her interest in expressing herself through diverse representations in film/books is a culmination of over 25 years of working as a multi award winning visual artist/filmmaker and professor creating in forms ranging from handmade/cameraless films, to 16mm and super 8 films, to multimedia, and broadcast television. She's interested in deconstructing preconceived media influences and assigned identities in an effort to peel back layers to reveal elements of universality. She believes in the idea and practice that we are one; we are all connected.
