10th Taipei Biennial   Curator - Corinne Diserens

A woman opening a door becomes a transformative experience in this 16mm film installation by Palestinian artist Nida Sinnokrot. The imagery takes on an ephemeral painterly quality, changing tone as the film’s emulsion slowly becomes exposed though tiny scratches, registered with every step of the audience. In turn the projections themselves alternate from dark to light; exposing, like a camera shutter, the mechanics of the installation. Here questions of power, gesture, surface, space and agency are raised, provoking an examination of the machine and its material impact on representation.
