Where film creates a space for liberation and reveal. In an act of self portrait the artist also mirrors society- distorting and freeing it. Archiving memory through vision and non linear time.

As part of the second edi­ti­on of Publiek Park, Art Cinema OFFoff invi­tes the British artist and film­ma­ker Guy Sherwin.

The 5th Experimental Film Festival Process will take place from 17 to 21 May in Riga, Latvia. Organized by the artist-run film lab Baltic Analog Lab, the festival is dedicated to the diverse analog cinema practices employed by adventurous audiovisual artists from around the world. The programme comprises film screenings, live performances, installations, talks, and, of course, parties.

A group show of experimental film and video artists that explore the notion of before-and-after a memorable event in relation to their work. Does the “after” mirror the “before” or is the reflection completely different? Each artist responds to the question in a different way. This group screening reflects on a binary aspect of ‘before and after’ an event, trauma, pandemic, or “just” the passage of time, and the way it influences the cinematic narrative as well as the artist’s reading of the concept itself.
