This month I have been accepted to Dream Farm Commons, a small, artist run exhibition and project space in Downtown Oakland. I will be one of the film curators, curating different video projections on the wall across Dream Farm Commons during evenings on second Saturdays showcasing artful, political, experimental, and are particularly seeking works that resonate with the large public space, so stay posted for more calls.
What and who do we need to remember? Submit your short video that might, obliquely or directly, be “in memory of“, from homage to unsung warriors, to reclamation of former visions or lands, claiming of the intersection between past and future, defying erasure, or recalling shadows...
The video should be less than 10 minutes in length, a strong enough resolution to be seen on a big screen, and in a downloadable video file that can be inserted into an adobe premiere timeline. Accompanying text or contextualization welcome. Submit to vnava26@gmail.com subject line: 15th Street Outdoor Screening. Submission due June 1. Look out for a live stream on Facebook.
