J. or A Remembrance Of Things To Come

In this recent project, Filipino artist Victor Balanon retells La Jetee by the symbolic act of performing the role of an unreliable narrator whose attempt to transcribe a classic is mired by a compromised archive of images and a faulty memory. Presented in a sequence of 75 ink drawings, the reverse transcription–finished film translated into storyboard–underscores the themes explored in the original film and is also a commentary on contemporary concerns regarding authorship and originality, fact and truth, and the appropriation of images in culture and history in general.

Venue: Artesan Gallery + Studio, New Space @ The Esplanade
8 Raffles Avenue, The Esplanade Mall #02-05/07, Singapore 038982

When: 15 Jan - 5 Feb 2020, Mon–Sat 1pm–8.30pm; Sun 2pm–7pm

By: Artesan Gallery + Studio
