Diana Thater
Born in 1962 in San Francisco, Diana Thater has been a pioneering creator of video, film and installation art over the past 25 years. Her work explores the relationship between humans and animals: the underwater world of dolphins, honeybees who communicate through dancing and the lives of monkeys in India. Her immersive installations push the physical and conceptual boundaries of how we experience moving images. In the nineteenth episode of Brilliant Ideas, brought to you by Bloomberg and Hyundai Motor, we meet Thater in her Los Angeles studio as she talks us through the most comprehensive exhibition of her work to date - Diana Thater: The Sympathetic Imagination - at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA).
