day of forming research group 06.03.2019
Questions from our practice
- How has the spectator/observer/viewer/audience changed over time?
- How do we feel/relate to people when we present an idea/image as a certain gaze (doesn't have to be defined according to gender)?
- What is gaze?
- Should I/we, as female artists be aware of our gaze and our gender when creating culture?
The male gaze is slowly becoming an outdated term.
Let's define gaze intuitively: We look at something for some time, we are intrigued, and we try to understand from our own (cultural) framework of reference.
- Why do filmmakers want to show work? What is inside the filmmaker?
- What's in our work?
Marieke:::subvert norms: make a statement to make the audience (for the lack of the word) aware - how do people relate?
Jue:::meditation: affect - how are people moved in cinema?
