Chanje Kunda is a performance artist with complex post-traumatic stress disorder. Her latest project, Kintsugi Gold is a short film that aims to celebrate the lives of people with severe and enduring mental health disabilities.

Taking conceptual inspiration from Kintsugi, the Japanese art form of repairing cracked and broken crockery with gold, the short film will combine poetry, photography and live art aesthetics to create a visible, audible and celebratory piece of art.

Kintsugi Gold will be available on recurring dates throughout the festival, from November 27 until December 13.
