The 2025 IN PERSON program of Tricky Women Tricky Realities is dedicated to Gina Kamentsky.
Gina Kamentsky is an experimental animator and sound artist based in Providence, Rhode Island. Her anxious and joyful short films blast out at twenty-four frames per second, searing eyeballs and sending waves of buzz and crackle into the ether. Over her three-decade career she has progressed through numerous forms and techniques, including painting, drawing and collaging on film, Rotoscope, Musique concrète, sound collage, stop motion, and pixilation. Her films have screened at festivals nationally and worldwide, including the Ottawa International Animation Festival, Ann Arbor Film Festival, Annecy International Animated Film Festival and Animator Festival in Poznań, Poland.

This program will show 19 films by Gina Kamentsky.
