Paul Sharits was an American filmmaker and visual artist working primarily in expanded cinema and film installation. His practice centered on the materiality of film itself, using repetition, flicker, and fragmentation to create immersive, structuralist works that prioritized formal properties over narrative. Active from the 1960s through the 1990s, he developed techniques that positioned film as a phenomenological medium capable of producing direct perceptual and bodily experience. His work fundamentally challenged conventional cinema as a vehicle for representation.
