Matt Whitman has been making short works on motion picture film since 2010. Mainly silent and often edited in-camera, his films over the last ten years were largely generated in response to moments of grief and loss, both private and public – particularly as seen and felt through the mediation of digital interfaces and archives. ~ This program showcases his film work in chronological order. While his films have been shown at festivals and other group screenings, this program of films is his first solo screening in the western United States. In addition to filmmaking, Whitman also works with pinhole photography and experiments with eco-friendly black and white film developing techniques.
