Timeline
Many of Finley’s projects explore sites where the lives of individuals have shifted due to events outside of their control. The tension between individual will and social/political structures is explored in works such as Manhole 452, 2011, a film in which a man ruminates on fate and determination after a manhole cover explodes under his car on Geary Street. The Napoleon Room, 2008, shown at the Camargo Foundation in Southern France, uses sound as well as interior and exterior projections on a room where Napoleon slept. This piece intertwines different narratives of war, including Finley’s mother’s experience at the site when she participated in the invasion of Southern France during World War II.
Several projects, such as Journeys Beyond the Cosmodrome, 2017, Falsework, 2015, and Threshold, 2012, use public and participatory singing to harness the fissures between the physicality of Finley's subjects and their often disembodied voices, a result of her often utilized format of the voice-over. The multi-platform project Journeys Beyond the Cosmodrome, 2017, began as a workshop with sixteen teenagers graduating out of an orphanage in Kazakhstan during which they imagined their lives after graduating through writing, photography, and video. In 2018, during a live cinema presentation of this project, the San Francisco Threshold choir performed music that singer/composer Kri Schlafer had written based on the language from the teenagers' stories.
Finley often works with essay-formatted narratives, such as in the work Fat Chance, 2014. In this film, Finley combines footage of a wrecked sailboat with an original sound score developed and voiced by media artist Pamela Z. The film tells of the rogue wave that hit the sailboat, and includes an interview from one of the fathers piloting the boat before the accident. He testifies to the power of the documentary footage, which helped him move away from guilt, and towards the acceptance of the death of his friend’s son, an incident beyond his control.
Finley has received a number of grants and fellowships, including a Fulbright Fellowship to Belgrade where she directed Nomads at the 25 Door a work which explores the displacement of individuals from their homes. In 1994 she lived in Istanbul through a Lila Wallace Reader’s Digest Fellowship where she directed Conversations Across the Bosphorus, an experimental documentary about two women’s relationship to their faith. During her Guggenheim Fellowship, Finley co-directed Arm Around Moscow with Gretchen Stoeltje, a feature documentary about an American Russian matchmaking service. A CEC Artslink Fellowship brought Finley to Kazakhstan where she spent two summers working with 16-year-olds aging out of the Akkol orphanage. Other awards include a Rockefeller Media Arts Fellowship, Creative Capital, Cal Arts / Alpert Award, National Endowment for the Arts Fellowships, NYSCA Award and the Phelan Award. Her films have been honored by awards at festivals including the San Francisco International Film Festival, Atlanta Film Festival, Berlin Video Festival, Toronto Film Festival, and World Wide Video Festival.
The use of language as a weapon or tool of resistance has been a focus of a number of Finley's films, as seen in Involuntary Conversion, 1991., Language Lessons, 2002, and Book Report, 2017
Finley's early work with projected photographic slide shows such as Deaf Dog Can Hear, 1984, has developed into the continued creation of multi projector site-specific installation pieces including The Adventures of Blacky, 1999, The Trial of Harmony and Invention, Winter, 2001, Catapult, 2005, Sleeping Under Stars, Living Under Satellites], 2010, and the outdoor projection version of Book Report, 2017, for the True/False Film Festival.
