Laura Huertas Millan on Black Sun
Rencontre
Lafayette Anticipations9 rue du Platre 75004 PARIS The artist and filmmaker Laura Huertas Millán presents her film Black Sun (2016), followed by a discussion with the audience and curator Madeleine Planeix-Crocker.
Through a sensitive portrait of Antonia, an opera singer plagued by melancholy and depression, Black Sun explores with great delicacy the links between the body, the voice, artistic creation and psychological states. Through breath, song, silences and fragments of intimate narratives, the film creates an atmosphere that is both unsettling and deeply moving.
Through discreet and elliptical direction, Laura Huertas Millán crafts a narrative in which the intimate becomes the setting for a broader reflection on memory, vulnerability and the forms of resistance found in living beings.
The screening is followed by a discussion with the artist about her film work, her visual research and the themes running through her works.
