La famille Ardoteli n'a découvert qu'un seul vestige de la civilisation. Un hélicoptère militaire Tchétchène écrasé il y a dix ans en Géorgie dans le Khevsureti supérieur. Comme il ne pouvait être utilisé comme bibliothèque, les vaches y prennent refuge et les enfants y ont installé leur aire de jeux privée. A travers les "yeux" fatigués de l'hélicoptère, ce documentaire d'observation conte l'histoire des différentes générations d'Ardoteli, exposées à ce seul vestige.

In a natural crisis scenario, the entire population of Azores is forced to evict due to an uncontrolled plague of hydrangeas, a common flower in these islands. Two young soldiers, bound to the beauty of the landscape, guide us to the stories of sadness of those forced to leave and the inherent desire to resist by inhabiting the islands. The filmic wandering becomes a nostalgic and political reflection on territorial belonging and identity, and the roles we assume in the places we came from.

Voguing is a form of dance that was created on the streets and drag balls of Harlem by a subculture of young mostly poor, gay, trans, black and/or Latino’s in the 1980s. The Ballroom scene in which Voguing exists in is an art form that’s closely linked with ideas of fashion, luxury, and social and economic mobility. In the past few years the Voguing and Ballroom scene has seen a resurgence in its popularity spreading across the globe. No longer limited to members of American urban black and Latino gay communities it can be found as far away as Russia now. Historically the Ballroom scene included society`s most marginalized: minorities within minorities within minorities. In a world where they have been rejected, ballroom not only accepted these people for who they were, it celebrated them! While this resurgence in popularity is celebrated by many there is concern by some that with Voguing’s success in crossing over into the mainstream to communities of the "non marginalized" that there is a risk the dance may slowly be losing its connections to its roots.

We follow a man of advanced age walking along a misty mountain path in China. In one shot he carries a bag; in others he carries sacks of rice, or timber, or large buckets of water. He’s filmed in the morning, in the evening, and at night. The seasons change as we walk with him, through the bleakness of the winter, or on a fresh spring morning. The low-key atmosphere, the subdued gray-green hues of the surroundings, and the absence of dialogue and music all lend this film a refreshingly understated feel. A space is opened up in which the viewer can listen to the sound of the wind, the man’s footsteps, the birds. There is time to wonder who the man is that we are following, where he is going, and what his life is like. Only at the end of his journey do we find out a little more about him.

The film evolves from more than 7,000 educational slides left in the cabinet of Somkiat Tangnamo, a Professor of Aesthetics and a founder of Thailand`s `virtual university`, who passed away several years ago. These slides weren`t in use anymore in today`s art education. Thus, it represents the mode of teaching in the past. Watching and piecing these slides together is a journey to an art education in Thailand. After I stay with these slides for months, I set a goal to create a workpiece from Somkiat`s slide archive. Getting started, I examined these slides one by one. They were categorized and put separately in boxes with a criterion unknown to us. I also correlated these slides with the hundreds of articles that this professor had translated into Thai for teaching`s sake. In search of stories in this archive, I tried putting these photos together to create a new meaning out of them.

Inspired by the diary of a migrant worker, the documentary weaves several social and artistic threads together: the life a Thai migrant sex worker named Ploy who works in Singapore’s “jungle brothel”; the narratives of other migrant workers; an exploration of Singaporean forests and public parks; and the process through which the artist-filmmaker delves into and revisits Ploy’s experience.

“ 24h Dahlem ” examines the motivations behind the planned relocation (2019) of the ethnographic collections from the Dahlem State Museum’s the Ethnological Museum and Museum for Asian Arton the periphery of Berlin to the future site of the Humboldt Forum in Berlin Mittea site in the city center that resurrects 19th-century Prussian architectural elements stemming from classical and romantic ideals.

"De Anima" spans documentary and animation and features a dreamlike narrative examining how various gendered, racialized, economic, and metabolic systems embedded within the global health system—which have become especially apparent during the COVID-19 crisis—drive fear of contamination from the nonhuman world. The work’s departure point is Jo’s 2018 field research in Myanmar with Smithsonian wildlife veterinarians who were hunting for new strains of coronavirus to predict their pandemic potential. The sacred caves depicted in "De Anima" are both high-risk interfaces as well as sites of spiritual encounter between humans and animals, science and religion, nature and politics—interfaces where ecosystems cross and feed into global conflict. This behind-the-scenes work had been underway for years, and sheds light on the inevitable: not of a why but an unknown when—offering an ominous prelude to the current global health crisis. Recorded in Myanmar, Kenya, and France, the images and sounds featured in "De Anima" that once felt so ‘far away’ now deeply resonate in the everyday. The work exposes subtexts that reveal deeper issues embedded within society at large, namely the neglect and treatment of health beyond the human in an era of accelerated globalization.

Clara Jo's work has been exhibited and screened her work at Gropius Bau (Berlin), Centre Pompidou (Paris), ARKO Art Center (Seoul), Royal Academy of Arts (London), Spike Island (Bristol), Hamburger Bahnhof (Berlin), and Edith-Russ-Haus für Medienkunst (Oldenburg).

“The light and shade of the ornaments – a rehearsal” is a micro biography of the glass workers from the Sudetenland that were given employment in the glass industry, Sweden, after the 2WW. Two actors are taking turns facing each other reading an extensive amount of text, and two hands are leafing through photos. The 1st chapter tells the story of the voyage and dislocation of the Sudeten Germans from Czechoslovakia to Sweden. The narrative elucidates how, and why, this workforce was brought over, and the effect of the migration on both a personal and industrial level, including how the labour movement organized the new arrivals. The 2nd chapter is turned towards the local context, how Swedish glassworks were inspired by the traditions of the Sudeten Germans, in Bohemia. We are told about what happened to one of the world’s last kingdoms of crystal, Bohemia, during and after the Nazi occupation and under Communism. How centuries of migrations from central Europe has influenced the Swedish glass industry, a vital element for understanding how the Sudeten Germans were regarded as craftsmen. The narrative highlights how the destinies of the glass workers were shaped by war and different political systems.
