Student: Petrenko Sofia

Educational Programme: Contemporary Art Practices (Master)

Year of Graduation: 2021

An essay-film about materia and its inclusivity, about the human and their place in the network of interrelated substances. Materialistic reality is steeped in unwitnessed processes. It flows from one body to another, it spreads out and fragments into numerous actors. How can we define it? The human and the virus generate sensitivity and morbidness of the vision. Mold grows on the surface of the film and generates a new image. What is the border of my body and my action? Who is making this film? Stop-motion, 16 mm, colour
