A project curated by two artists and recent Rhode Island School of Design graduates,

Yuka Otani and Anjali Srinivasan, this exhibition consists of 20 digital video works, some of which are accompanied by installation components.

Working with the lens of a video camera, the 19 artists featured in the exhibition engage a wide gamut.  They investigate an intimate relationship with glass, capture the poetic beauty of vulnerable moments using the metaphors of glass and implement performative acts that problematize a situation or provide insight.  They explore social implications of transparency and reflectivity and create moments by unmaking objects.  The Festival showcases a variety of short videos ranging from abstract and perceptual to narrative and process-based. In all cases the works are manifest best through the vocabulary of video though some include an active physical/installation component.

Following its debut at Heller Gallery in New York (September 10-25) the Festival will travel to Sydney, Austrialia.
