From DOCLAB:
ĐôcPhêt is extremely pleased to present the world premiere of:
‘IN A GREEN ISLAND’
5-CHANNEL VIDEO INSTALLATION (20’, LOOP, 2017, JAMIE MAXTONE-GRAHAM)
With a quietly observing camera and an ambient sound environment, five screens frame individuals within a landscape that they at once inhabit and are yet not conscious of. The bodies, male and female, can be seen as both a natural part of the landscape while alien and vulnerable within it. There is a sense of disquiet in the ambiance of it.
This video installation is a part of ĐôcPhêt 2017.

* ABOUT HÀ NỘI ĐÔCPHÊT 2017:
In what has now transpired as the final edition of their annual festival before Hanoi DocLab house-moves out of their almost ten-year base, DocFest 2017 doubles in scope. Introducing Hanoi ĐốcPhết – a whole week-long naughty-cousin’d programme running in multiple venues across the city in parallel to the core DocFest happenings at the Goethe-Institut. Beyond structural changes and unencumbered of institutional pressures, ĐốcPhết constitutes an exploration of DocLab’s future avenues, in which there might exist yet a larger role to play for grass-root, collective action.
