Kevin Jerome Everson is one of the defining voices of contemporary experimental cinema. Working with a handheld 16mm camera, he observes everyday Black life: labour, neighborhoods, gestures, movement, and meteorological phenomena. Precise, poetic works of striking formal clarity.

Everson brings together aesthetics and the politics of seeing. His films reflect on history, migration, and resistance beyond conventional modes of representation. Scratches, light flares, long takes, and the materiality of analogue film become carriers of meaning in their own right.

In only 23 years Teo Hernández, one of the central figures of Paris’s queer avant-garde film scene of the 1970s and ’80s, produced a monumental body of work that reveals how myth and zealous desire are inextricably knit to our everyday lives. Across more than 150 Super 8mm films, encompassing portraiture, urban landscapes, and diaristic cinema, he ceaselessly forged radical alternatives to linear time and perspectival vision, entrancing audiences with a visceral style that affects both body and spirit.
