Into the dark we enter
The horror of the mundane contamination.
A mash-up of bodily distortions.
Curated by Emilie Alstrup
Contamination:
noun
the action or state of making or being made impure by polluting or poisoning.
The program will feature a visceral collection of body horror imagery that visually experiments with the modern human in various states of contamination. The imagery engages with various ways of dealing with everyday life, and how we try to rescue our minds while outrunning our bodies. Moreover, the fragmented selections of clips, depicts how social connections might also generate alienation and destruction, and poison our powers of reasoning.
There will be shown clips from:
Salt, saliva, sweat and sperm, Philip Brody, 1987
Food, Jan Svankmajer, 1992
Naked Lunch, David Cronenberg, 1991
Rock DJ, Robbie Williams, 2000
