Ned Bojic : Montréal magnitudes
No full text" Nothing is ever simply a question of light. When I look at Ned's photographs, they make me think that all creativity is also a quest for light. It has been humanity's great battle since the dawn of time: to vanquish darkness. His photographs recount what his subjects can't express because he understands how to penetrate their shields with his eyes and his sensitivity. It is his heart that clicks when his finger presses the shutter release. He needs it to share what he brings back from his urban travels and everything that he draws out from a dimension that is generally beyond us " -- p. 5 of documen
On and Off-Screen Imaginaries
No full text"This collection of writings by artist and filmmaker Tiffany Sia (born 1988) gathers six essays that offer a framework for fugitive cinema. Written in the wake of the 2019–20 Hong Kong Protests ignited by the Anti-Extradition Bill Movement, Sia’s writings survey the rise of a new documentary vernacular being produced by a wave of emerging filmmakers breaking from the nostalgia of Hong Kong’s cinematic golden age. As a practitioner and thinker, Sia has been at the forefront of a nascent generation of artists working to trace social unrest and political crackdowns. Drawing from personal experience and historical study, her writings offer urgent reflections on a cultural landscape changed by censorship and surveillance.
An essential counterpart to her oeuvre, this volume is a critical intervention into global film studies, the politics of film/photographic practices and experimental approaches to documentary. Film stills from filmmakers Chan Tze-woon and the anonymous collective Hong Kong Documentary Filmmakers, photographs by artist An-My Lê and images from Sia’s short film The Sojourn (2023) are interspersed between each essay, inviting the reader to consider a cinema by other means." --Publisher's websit
