Masha Maria Yozefpolsky (Israel) – In Between SiO2, 2016, 10:00
In BetweenSiO2 is a critical video poetry of our turbulent contemporary existence in a world of diminishing resources. This is an era of immeasurable abandonment while ourselves are being stolen from us, lacking the ‘shelter within’, we are drifting towards contingent territories of obscure perspectives. As a dystopian elegy the film outlines individual, social and cultural malignant ‘ecology’ as contaminated by pandemic indifference and inherent violent amnesia. Blind, facing uncertainty and certain adversities under the sick and blurred sun, we can recollect the future by possible multiple tracks of extended perception for the time being, as long as we still have the time to dream replacing actuality and oblivion by multilayered cognition and longing.
