Angell was born in Portland, Oregon and lives and works in New York where he has produced and studied video, film and music. His work has been exhibited in Portland, New York, London, Europe and Australia and recently at the Istanbul Biennial. Angell gained notoriety in New York City by projecting his first nature video Jackie-O Forestry Center on the Guggenheim Museum and at Ground Zero. This year at the Caldera residency he inaugurated the first of his “myth building” public art projections on the snow-covered mountains and trees of central Oregon for the edification of unsuspecting drivers.
