Sites of Memory: Experimental Film Study Day

Join us for a study day exploring artist’s approaches to memory, and archives ­– using film as a medium to disrupt, challenge and reposition archives within their work.

Focusing specifically on artists working with moving image, film, expanded cinema and found footage, the day will feature film screenings, talks and contributions from artists, filmmakers, writers and curators including Tendai Mutambu.
