From the organzier:
Sàn Art and artist-in-residence Miên are excited to present a screening series focused on how artist-filmmakers are engaging with spiritual, political, and historical dimensions of the natural world. Composed of 5 short films produced by regional artists, this programme invites viewers to engage in a complex dialogue with, and to reconsider, the mythological and spiritual ecologies shaping our relationships with and responsibilities to plants and animals, land, stone, water, place, and community.
This screening programme is part of Miên’s residency for Sàn Art Studio 2.
NOTE: Due to limited space, only 15 seats are available. RSVP is required. Register early!

About Sàn Art Studio
Started in 2021, Sàn Art Studio is a six-week residency and mentorship initiative hoping to develop one proposed creative project while nurturing the cultural agenda of the city. Artists are able to utilise the gallery’s platform and resources as an incubator for Ho Chi Minh City’s arts scene and community exchange.
