CSV is screening:
Skite’kmujuawti - Amanda Amour Lynx (Mi’kmaw) @amour.lynx
This work captures ‘holding ceremony with myself’. The project illustrates the process of readying oneself for initiation into cultural practices highlighting longing and desire for community connection and cultural teachings within the constraints of isolation. Landscapes traipse between physical and temporal spaces through compositing digital illustration and 3D animation with natural video footage– buoyed between spirit realms, imagination, visions and reality.
Milkteeth - Melissa Johns (Mohawk/French Canadian) @lemisma
A collaboration with a dancer and sound artist, Milkteeth's aim is to evoke intimacy, emotion, and a sense of familiarity from the viewer. Using non-traditional stereoscopic techniques and post-production data manipulation, beauty, grace, and control are highlighted and then subverted; giving way to aesthetic flaws that imply a dark complexity beneath the facade of the performative.
These video works provide an intimate window into the human psyche and spirit. Glitched; bravely breaking down facades of what it looks like to navigate a world of constant mask making, while evoking multidimensional realities. They exist unapologetically, providing an example of how we may hold ourselves in this dimension.
