WIRES
Rumi Jeraj
DURATION: 10:40
This work is an exploration of space. Inspired by its location and the urge to change urban spaces into performance places, WIRES began as a physical exploration. By questioning what could be done outside of the studio but not within, a new dance space was made. From here the work became a radical act of collaboration. The performer's state of mind at this moment in time became a jumping off point: the physical substances included, the weather on shoot day and conversations about feeling and style all found their way into this film. Enjoy!

F-O-R-M is based in so-called Vancouver, in what is colonially known as Canada, on the unceded and stolen traditional territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. F-O-R-M continues to reflect on and bring attention to connection to bodies, land and movement through filmmaking, documentation and storytelling. We are grateful to share and witness these stories together while inspiring movement towards positive change, wherever you may be.
