Shannon Silva

Shannon Silva is a multi-modal filmmaker raised in Austin, Texas and based in Wilmington, North Carolina. Fluidly moving through non-fiction, narrative, animation, and experimental modes, she allows each film’s focus to find its appropriate production process. Autobiographical at their core, her films meditate on issues of class, gender, and memory instability. Most recently, due to personal illness, her work is contemplating the challenges of physical disability, cultural rituals of gathering during isolation, and preserving effects of community. Over the past two decades, Silva’s films have screened at festivals internationally including Atlanta Underground, Cucalorus, Docutah, Indie Grits, Sidewalk Film Festival, St. John's International Women's Film Festival, and more. She is the founder/Executive Director of the Visions Film Festival & Conference, and an Associate Professor of Film Studies at the University of North Carolina Wilmington.
