Setiap filem dalam program kompilasi yang terdiri dari 9 filem pendek ini menggali makna kehilangan melalui eksplorasi pribadi dari manusia dan\/atau melalui disintegrasi politik. Tiap filemnya juga adalah catatan harian dari seorang manusia tentang dirinya, masuk ke dalam cerita-cerita mereka dengan cara yang emosional; di dalamnya, sentuhan pribadi si pembuat membentuk estetika: baik dengan proses manual menggunakan seluloid, rekaman footage<\/em> arsip video, penciptaan langsung dalam kamera, rekaman VHS, rekaman dengan kualitas standard-definition<\/em> atau pemrosesan filem dengan tumbuh-tumbuhan.<\/p>\n

Jika strip filem atau layar video bentuknya datar, maka apakah filem punya kedalaman? Apakah kedalaman tersebut diukur dari gradasi warnanya atau estetikanya atau apa yang dibicarakannya? Saya berpendapat bahwa filem atau video yang diproyeksikan benar punya kedalaman, tetapi bagaimana itu bisa dilihat dalam format presentasi di bidang yang \u201cdatar\u201d atau kedalaman tersebut ada di benak penontonnya?<\/p>\n

Dalam tiap filem di program yang bertajuk Jika Kau Telah Menjalaninya: Dis\/Integrasi<\/em>, kedalaman emosi digali dengan indah melalui sentuhan tangan yang akan membawa tubuh dan jiwa penonton masuk ke dalam layar dan juga melampauinya. Tiga karya dari Christine Negus dalam program ini berbicara tentang eksplorasi pribadi akan kehilangan, kepunahan, dan luapan perasaan. Malena Szlam dengan filemnya Lunar Almanac<\/em> membawa kita ke bingkaian suatu langit dengan refleksi dari cahaya yang menari-nari. Karya esai video dari Cecilia Aranade, The Space Shuttle Challenger<\/em>, menggambarkan imbas peristiwa sejarah yang barbar terhadap seorang pengungsi belia. Alexandra Gelis lewat karyanya The Island<\/em> adalah sebuah potret intim seorang tukang kebun yang terus melawan, bertahan, dan menjalani kehidupan; dengan medium seluloid lewat kebersentuhan tangan. Sarah Bliss dengan karyanya Unless You\u2019re Living It<\/em> adalah potret verit\u00e9<\/em> akan sebuah kota kecil Mount Forest di Ontario, dituturkan melalui tangkapan foto dan wawancara yang intim dengan penduduk setempat, dengan medium film 16mm yang diwarnai. It Matters What<\/em> karya Franci Duran adalah sebuah jukstaposisi kompleks tentang manusia, hewan, dan tumbuhan, dalam proses fotografis yang disarikan oleh Donna Haraway, seorang akademisi. Sharlene Bamboat menghadirkan sebuah esai video yang dinamis lewat karyanya Video Home System<\/em>. Lewat filem itu, ia mengkontraskan budaya populer, gerakan politik nasionalisme, dan aspek ekonomi gerakan filem bawah tanah di Pakistan pada periode 1980-an dan 1990an.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1565771105510{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\u201cBut I never said I would stay to the end
\n<\/em>I knew I would leave you and fame isn’t everything
\n<\/em>Screaming like this in the hope of sincerity
\n<\/em>Screaming it’s over and over and over
\n<\/em>I leave you with photographs, pictures of trickery

The nine short films in this program each explore notions of loss through profound personal explorations of personal and\/or political disintegration. Each short is a personal diary unto itself, delving into his\/herstories in profoundly emotional ways; wherein the form is only assisted through tactility: whether hand-processed celluloid, archival video footage, in-camera creation, VHS tapes, standard-definition recording or processing films with plant life.<\/p>\n

If the film strip or video screen is flat, does film have depth? Is such depth in regards to color grading or to the form or the content? I would argue that the projected film or video does have depth, but what does that look like in a \u2018flat\u2019 presentation or reception format?<\/p>\n

In each of the nine films in Unless You\u2019re Living It: Dis\/Integration, <\/em>emotional depth is beautifully explored through hands-on approaches that bring the viewers body and mind into the screen and beyond. Christine Negus\u2019s videos anchor the program with three personal explorations of loss, extinction, and exaltation. Malena Szlam\u2019s film Lunar Almanac <\/em>takes us to the sky for a single frame ecstatic dance of light play and reflection. Cecilia Araneda\u2019s video essay The Space Shuttle Challenger <\/em>reflects on the impact of barbarous historical events on a young refugee. Alexandra Gelis\u2019s The Island <\/em>is a small-gauge hand-made portrait of a gardener who continues to resist, survive, and thrive. Sarah Bliss\u2019s Unless You\u2019re Living It <\/em>is a verit\u00e9 portrait of small-town Mount Forest, Ontario told through intimate photography and interviews with its residents via hand-processed 16mm film and painted color. Franci Duran\u2019s It Matters What <\/em>is a multilayered juxtaposition of human, animal and plant lives and the power of plant life in the photographic process as filtered through theorist Donna Haraway. Sharlene Bamboat\u2019s Video Home System <\/em>is a dynamic video essay that contrasts popular culture, political nationalism and the underground film economies in Pakistan of the 1980s and 1990s.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_text_separator title=”Film List” color=”black” border_width=”3″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_tta_tabs style=”modern” spacing=”2″ active_section=”1″][vc_tta_section title=”FILMWORK” tab_id=”1532969190362-a01badc7-fcf5″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”9551″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1565772720992{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n
