Maybelle Peters

Maybelle Peters is a London-based artist and filmmaker whose practice explores black corporeality using an archive of ephemera, gestures and sounds.

She is the recipient of the inaugural Women of Colour art award 2020 and has recently presented work at Berlinale Expanded Forum and Prismatic Ground in New York. Maybelle holds a doctorate in creative technology from the University of the Arts, where her practice-based inquiry examined extractivist practices in motion capture technology.
