Film programme "On the Time of Things"
Curator: Kim Knowles (UK)
This programme explores the theme of time from the perspective of space and place. Each film explores the radical potential of a particular site, which registers the traces of time passing. Performative interventions and formal manipulations challenge traditional ways of experiencing the world and take us on a journey that is both personal and political. Combining 8mm, Super 8, 16mm, 35mm and digital, the films display innovative approaches to additive colour mixing, hand-processing, multiple exposure, in-camera editing and stop-motion animation.
