Natasha Woods is a filmmaker and programmer currently based in Charlottesville, Virginia, where she is the assistant director of Visible Records.
Her early curiosities grew from the fields and landscapes of rural Iowa where she grew up in a blended family of factory workers and farmers. Her approach to filmmaking is somatic, one of deep listening and often an invitation to look closer and to move slowly. By centering the first-person and process based approaches, the camera becomes an extension and tool for her observation and inquiries for world making and questions of belonging.
She has programmed a range of events and screenings at DIY and artist-forward spaces, including Cactus Club (Milwaukee, WI) and co-founded Cinéseries, a graduate-led effort hosted by The Wexner Center for The Arts (Columbus, OH). Her work has been screened in backyards and at various moving image festivals including Film Diary NYC, ImagesFestival, Dream Clinic, Athens International Film Festival, and Milwaukee Underground Film Festival, with the nomadic No Evil Eye Cinema.
