Found in Translation on Paros

“In considering a place we look at passages of time, development and decay. As an outsider to any locale, we find ourselves in states of translation: both the navigator and the one in need of guiding. The physical and cultural realms are layered by an accrual of rites and texture to be misconstrued by the interloper. Without mutual consent, but as a means of interpretation, I use the camera like a tongue in search of speech. The projected slides in rhythmic sequences are a case study in questioning.”

Amy Trachtenberg and Elliot Anderson will discuss practices of translation with respect to landscapes and their inherent social ecologies.

Thursday night, at SF Camerawork. See events.
