Career
A storyteller producing videos since 1981, her work swings between beauty and the grotesque, innocence and cruelty. In the psychological landscape of contemporary fairy tales, Condit’s films put a subversive spin on the traditional mythologies of female representation and the psychologies of sexuality and violence. Exploring the dark side of female subjectivity, her work focuses of myths of old age, childhood, lovers, mothers, families, friends.
Her work has shown internationally in festivals, museums and alternative spaces and is represented in collections including the Museum of Modern Art in New York City and Centre Georges Pompidou Musee National d"Art Moderne, Paris, France.
She studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, University of Pennsylvania, received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in sculpture from the Philadelphia College of Art and Master of Fine Arts in photography from Tyler School of Art of Temple University.
