When the Moon Waxes Red
Fi żmien ta’ kriżijiet klimatiċi avvanzati, id-dinja għandha tinqara daqslikieku kienet skript li jeħtieġ li jiġi interpretat. Dan jorbot mal-għarfien tradizzjonali, ibiddel il-perspettivi u n-normi u jqajjem il-mistoqsija: Li kieku nipprulalirizzaw l-ideat tagħna dwar id-dinja u nagħrfu li l-fehim attwali tal-futur li ddomina d-dinja għal sekli sħaħ sempliċement iwassal għal tmiem fatali, x’jiġri?
L-esibizzjoni tagħti attenzjoni lis-sejħa għal ħarsa polifonika lejn il-ħajja fuq dan il-pjaneta, fejn il-bnedmin u dawk li mhumiex bnedmin, suġġetti u materjali binarji u mhux binarji għandhom vuċi ugwali, u tagħti attenzjoni lill-għarfien u l-futuriżmi mhux mismugħa, li ħadd ma jarahom u indiġeni.
“When the Moon Waxes Red”, mislufa mill-ktieb tal-produttriċi tal-films Vjetnamiża Trinh Minh-h bl-istess isem, tgħaqqad flimkien l-artisti minn madwar id-dinja li jindirizzaw l-iżbilanċ bejn l-attivitajiet tal-bnedmin ta’ estrazzjoni tar-riżorsi u ideoloġiji kolonjali, u tiġġustifika l-protezzjoni tal-proprjetà fuq id-degradazzjoni tan-nies u n-natura, billi tuża l-ekofemminiżmu bħala punt ta’ tluq.

Upcoming Events
When the Moon Waxes Red | Curatorial Tour
‘When the Moon Waxes Red’, borrowed from Vietnamese filmmaker Trinh Minh-h’s book of the same name, brings together artists from around the world that address the imbalance between human activities to extract resources and colonial ideologies, justifying the protection of property over people and nature’s degradation, by using ecofeminism as a point of departure.
