POSITIONING

POSITIONING is a dynamic process of placing an object or a subject in space and the ending ‘-ing’ assigns to this action the notion of transition.

Considering POSITIONING as a process between movement and stillness, what can dance and camera, with their fluctuating yet clearly situational form, offer to the understanding and awareness of POSITIONING as a socio-political phenomenon? How does the tension between moving and positioning a camera impact visual representation and subjectivity?

Join us for three short screenings on the theme of POSITIONING in Valetta, the European Capital of Culture for 2018; somewhere in the centre of the Mediterranean sea between Sicily and the North African coast!
