​                       Jodi Darby (b. 1971) is a media artist, activist and educator specializing in experimental video and photography.
                       Her work reflects an interest in re-purposing history, mapping the changing North American landscape and                             
                       finding 
beauty in that which has been discarded and abandoned.
                
                       Her projects deal with rebellion and joy and her work seeks to amplify stories that often go unheard while pushing
                       back at the narratives of dominant culture. She has collaborated with members of the Black Panther Party, the Dineh
                       Nation, the Bolivian Anarcha-Feminist collective Mujeres Creando and the American Indian Movement.

                       Her most recent documentary Arresting Power: Resisting Police Violence in Portland, Oregon which she co-directed
                       with  Julie Perini and Erin Yanke, has won multiple awards and has been programmed internationally.
                  
                       Darby is the Education Director of POWGirls, a program that teaches a curriculum of video production and media literacy
                       to girls and non-binary youth, an instructor at Outside the Frame, a film program for houseless youth, and a 
professor at
                       Portland State University's School of Art + Design.
