Ranging from photographs, video, film installations, and feature films for the cinema, Siegel’s artwork re-orientates the fictions within documentary practices, often doubling back on history through the specific patterns of cinematic choreography and architecture. In her multipart works for exhibition, Siegel takes seemingly disparate filmic elements, often derived in part from archives and her own filmed images, and arranges them in an accumulative constellation, a method of associative montage that, in her cinema films, unfolds and recurs subtly over time.
