San Diego Art Institute presents a screening of short films spearheaded by its artist-in-residence Omar Lopex.
The program includes:
Ana Andrade, Jes?s Guerra, Bryan Chillian's "Scott" (2013, 03:54)
?Scott? is a short experimental documentary, an ethnographic archive of footage from the canals of the Tijuana River in Baja California; a place where migrants deported from the United States live in a homeless situation.
Diane Best's "Road to Mexican Hat" (2013, 6:17)
Three years ago, Best discovered the potential of moving images to affect the viewer, and has been working on these cinematic "paintings" ever since. Working in collaboration with musicians, this work brings a transformative, deep desert experience to the audience.
Lyndsay Bloom's "KISS" (2012, 1:31)
Bloom is a filmmaker and artist working in experimental cinema and film installation. Her recent films include collaborations with oceanographers and limnologists, merging experimental film with scientific research.
Lana Z Caplan's ""Is That All There Is?" (2010, 5:07)
Caplan?s performance video series Refrain is comprised of music videos in which she lip syncs to cover versions of pop songs of heartbreak and plays with expectations of love and echoes the song's slippage between desire and reality.
Alida Cervantes's "El Puro (con camar?grafo borracho)" (2011, 07:03)
Cervantes seeks to expose male domination and subvert Cuban?and Latin?machismo in order to destabilize the cultural associations that are attached to the male-female opposition in Latin societies.
Omar Lopex's "Sin Eater" (2015, 14:14)
Two formerly wealthy sisters depend on each other for survival in the wild outskirts of Depression-era San Diego. Featuring: Mickey Faerch, Jennifer Scibetta, Carter Burnett, Alberto Caro. Score by: Clinton Davis.
