Celebrating international video art and experimental film, the inaugural Edinburgh Artists' Moving Image Festival (EAMIF) is a chance to see something truly different. Take a leap from conventional cinema into our diverse programme of contemporary artists who challenge what we see on the screen. The festival aims to discover new artistic talent and widen the appreciation of artists’ moving image, whilst providing a platform for critical discourse.
Wednesday's program Stina Wirfelt and International Shorts:
The stories of a misplaced mural, a Hollywood film set, an Irish ghost town and a deck of playing cards converge in Fire Work by Stina Wirfelt, whilst Sean Paul and a washing machine are the surprise stars of Oasis and The Wash House. These will be shown alongside shorts by international artists whose work considers the construction of narrative and meaning in and on screen space.
Featuring: Samuel Devereux, Raphael Giannesini, Aleksander Isaenko, Kalun Leung, Kera Mackenzie, Andrew Mausert-Mooney, Arban Severin, Valentine Siboni, Paul Stewart & Stina Wirfelt
Screening will be followed a Q&A between Stina Wirfelt and Tom Nolan, Co director of Rhubaba Gallery and Studios. There shall be a specially commissioned text by Nolan.
