Crisis Imaginaries: On Slow Violence and the Anti-Spectacle

Framer Framed

Through a film screening and a discussion, this event will dive into the thematics of Errant Journal’s recent issue Slow Violence.

For this first session on 21 July we are joined by Errant Journal editor-in-chief Irene de Craen and contributing author Connie Zheng. Through a film screening and discussion, we will dive further into the thematics of Errant’s recent second issue Slow Violence.We begin from the question of representing slow violence, through discussing Connie Zheng’s recent article for Errant&#x27;s second issue — on aesthetic representations of environmental disaster (&#x27;Amidst slow violence: cascading reincarnations in Thao Nguyen Phan&#x27;s Becoming Alluvium&#x27;). Thinking on the distancing, overwhelming effect of images of climate catastrophe so often plastered across media; what do these images do, and not do?With this frame we turn toward Zheng’s own practice, and specifically her work around seeds as speculative futures. Together, De Craen and Zheng will guide us in a screening of Zheng’s film Seedtime (2020) and a discussion of anti-spectacular action and practice responding to climate collapse.
