In conjunction with the exhibition, Viaje a la luna (A trip to the moon), on view at The Wattis Institute, this program presents three artist-made films that explore the relationship between poetry and cinema with remarks on Wednesday, September 24 from Diego Villalobos, Associate Curator at The Wattis Institute.
Through layered images, disembodied voices, and poetic fragments, the works reflect on the boundaries between memory, perception, and representation.
Films include:
Mary Helena Clark, The Glass Note, 2018, 9 mins.
Peng Zuqiang, The Cyan Garden, 2022, 8:05 mins.
Ana Vaz, 13 Ways of Looking at a Blackbird, 2020, 31 mins.
Viaje a la luna (A trip to the moon) is on view through October 11 at The Wattis Institute and Novack Gallery at 145 Hooper Street, San Francisco.
