Beyond Resolution: Films By Sabine Gruffat
Join us at Hallwalls for a screening of short films by Sabine Gruffat, followed by a Q&A with the artist!
Beyond Resolution: This series of films favors ambiguity and resists resolution. The nearer the gaze, the more obscure the view. Illegibility here is not an escape from politics, but a way of inhabiting it differently: as a site of tension, friction, and possibility.
These films draw from a range of genres and layered techniques. Images are processed to draw attention to the hidden logics in software, hardware, and materiality. In repurposing media, the works call attention to the histories from which meaning’s fragile frameworks emerge.
