Artist Philomène Hoël presents six performative screenings, from 25-27 May at Chalton Gallery, London, featuring films of Stephen Dwoskin, Jean Genet, and soundpiece by Gavin Bryars. This is the last event from Hoël’s Dynamo Club series, in dialogue with Dyn Amo (1973), by Stephen Dwoskin.
Using a self-engineered device, Hoël will activate and interpose footage on three screens, conducting them like a live orchestra. Each film used by the artist suffers from a sense of exploitation from different points: the Film-maker, the subject, and the audience. In this piece, Hoël is interested in the gendered nature of this exploitation, the ethical concerns this raises by activating power games between the interlocutors of the work.
