Filmmaker and researcher Maddi Barber studied Audiovisual Communication at the University of the Basque Country and completed a Master´s Degree in Visual Anthropology at Manchester University.
Her film works are very tied to the pre-Pyrenean territory where she was born. They explore the relationship between memory, territory, infrastructure, ecology and the ethics of caring between humans and nature.
Her works have been screened at festivals such as Visions du Réel (Nyon), San Sebastian (Zabaltegi, Donostia), Fid Marseille (Marseille), Open City (London), Documenta Madrid (Madrid) and Punto de Vista (Iruñea), among others. In addition, she has held exhibitions at art centres such as San Telmo Museum (Donostia), Oteiza Museum (Alzuza), La Panera (Lleida), Artium Museum (Gasteiz), Fine Arts Museum (Bilbao) and Bolit Museum (Girona).
In 2019 she founded the production company Pirenaika, which has produced some of her films, as well as those of local artists and filmmakers.
