Residencies Insights: Artist talk and screening with UuDam Tran Nguyen
Description
30 Nov 2016, Wed 07:30 PM - 09:00 PM
Within the context of the exhibition Incomplete Urbanism: Attempts of Critical Spatial Practice, Artist-in-Residence UuDam Tran Nguyen will present Waltz of the Machine Equestrians (2012) and Serpents’ Tails (2015), two films that address issues of economic growth, air pollution, and urban development. Both works are inspired by the movement of traffic in Ho Chi Minh City and reference ancient Asian mythologies. The urban landscape is transformed into a surreal stage through a lyrically choreographed sequence of actions that reinterpret the relation between the body and the city. The artist will also discuss Time Boomerang, a long-term ongoing project he will develop during the residency.
