‘Feeling Myself’

Feeling Myself @ uqbar, Jul 30 – 31

29 July 2016

The Feeling Myself group screening is on at Berlin’s uqbar project space, running July 30 to 31.

Organised by Marie Beckmann and Julie Gaspard of EVBG, the weekend programme will feature video work by four artists who use the lens and the ‘digital realm’ to disrupt the control of the male gaze, reclaiming their bodies “for their own to present how they wish, be it silly, funny, confronting or sexual, off-putting or desired.”

Featuring Maja Malou Lyse, Ann Hirsch, Sally Glass and Jillian Mayer, each artist-subject performs for the camera to “subvert, cannibalize and trick” the audience’s stares.

See the uqbar website for details.**
