The world premiere of Under Cinema from filmmaker, artist and performer Wu Tsang features the acclaimed American singer-songwriter Kelela. Complementing the work is the UK premiere of We hold where study(2017): a choreographic approach to image-making and mourning, enacting a series of duets both within and between images. Together, these works form an investigation into issues of voice and representation through innovative filmmaking, questioning the relationship between reality and images, as well as the viewer’s gaze.
