Jorge Lozano: Moving Still_still life

October 14 – December 13, 2015
Salah J. Bachir New Media Wall, The Image Centre (formerly Ryerson Image Centre)
Guest Curator: Kate MacKay

MOVING STILL_still life depicts the harsh realities of daily life in Siloé, a suburb of Cali, Colombia, plagued with chronic violence. This eight-channel video installation consists of candid interviews with the city’s inhabitants along with scenes of their homes, their streets and the surrounding landscape. Created with the participation of youth from the district, staged scenes illustrate the conflict the subjects describe. The proliferation of viewpoints and the movement between documentary and fictional modes combine to create a multifaceted portrait of a complex and often dangerous existence.
