CURA #1 | Joana Peralta | PRT | 14'


Setting off from a study of Women in the modern world, CURE #1 is exactly it, a regeneration of the concept of what it means to be the fountain of life, a magic being that generates people and shifts humor according to lunar positions.

 

Aclarar | Isabel Medeiros | PRT | 12'

The fungi that grew on the physical archive of the eruption of the Capelinhos Volcano (1957, Faial Island) deteriorated the images, transforming them, in the same way that time altered the way those who lived through the eruption remember it. Based on my grandparents' forgetfulness and memories, I make a photo-film that focuses on memory and its faults, proposing the idea of forgetting as a fungus.

 

Mask of Malcolm | Francisco Lobo | PRT | 11'
