Join us for our last talk of the year! In collaboration with local artist Kaya Erdinç, Maya Schønning Kjærulff and Video power
Mirror, Sign, Mmm…
Maya Schønning Kjærulff is a visual artist working around editing and translation processes across different media. Her practice combines weaving and photography, exploring the interplay between the public and private, small-scale and intimacy.
Kaya Erdinç is an amateur artist, writer and gardener. He sees poetry as a compass to navigate our ever-changing experience of privacy. He is based in Houthem St. Gerlach, a village named after a 12th century hermit, who lived in a hollow oak tree. He is currently working on an installation that foregrounds the in/visibility of the subtitle in relation to sound and image.
The talk will focus on the subtitle as an overlooked genre of text and translation. As a blind spot in a culture filled with moving images, we will discuss the in/visible and in/accessible aspects of subtitles, and how they are part of our lives. Afterwards, we will invite everyone to contribute with their own views and reflections.
