Huiqin Wang - Hallerstein (33:02)
Production: KID KIBLA, 2009
In her long artistic practice, the artist pays special attention to preserving the memory of significant historical figures who built a bridge between East and West and are part of our shared world heritage.

Jatun Risba - Blitzangriff (trailer) (04:20 (trailer 00:30))
Production: Jatun Risba, 2022
A lightning, hit and run incursion into the most intimate space of an operating hospital: the restroom. A dancing rapture that overturns the medical gaze inside modern health institutions which marked the artist’s sexual and personal upbringing in indelible ways. A somatic celebration of the conquered pleasure and freedom of being genuinely alive and thriving – an outcome of decolonizing processes that reclaim the true nature of one's bodymind.

Jatun Risba - Possibility of a Relation (06:00)
Production: Jatun Risba, 2023
In the work ‘Possibility of a Relation’, the artist Jatun Risba traces in the air and in the space an alchemic matrix for the webs of conviviality to come. A transparent one square meter film – symbolizing the burden of the rising cost of living, including real estate – is attached to the gallery floor with blue tape. This blue-edged square is both a sanctuary of hopes for the future and the threatening abyss of the ocean with its rising sea-levels and the memories of many who died t...

Lea Culetto - Leftovers (03:55)
Subtitle: The Beginning
Production: SAiR, MGLC Ljubljana, 2024
Hair. Valued as long as it is alive. As long as it grows on the appropriate parts of the body. Desired as long as it has the right colour, texture, thickness, shape and length. As long as it is tamed. As long as it does not fall out. Unwanted if dead. It evokes unpleasant feelings, shame and even disgust. Except intentionally removed hair. The first cut lock of a child’s hair in a memory book. A strand of hair from an absent loved one in a locket. It becomes an object that transcends the material...
