After a successful first edition, the WG Film Festival TIME is returning this year with a new theme: METAMORPHOSIS. Artists, filmmakers, and producers from atelierWG and LAB111 will present a two-day film program featuring a diverse selection of short films that explore the theme of metamorphosis from different angles. A mix of stories and styles come together in four thematic programs: Transfiguration, Ritual, Myth, and Landscape.
The selected films examine processes of transformation — physical, mental, societal, and technological. They show how the past influences the present and how new technologies shake up our view of reality. The films move between the analog and digital eras, between dream and document, between memory and future vision. In addition to the screenings, there will be short conversations with the filmmakers providing context to their work and inspiration. TIME/METAMORPHOSIS offers space for reflection, poetry, and wonder — a kaleidoscopic window into a world in constant transition: “What was before – is left behind; what never was – is now.”.
In the context of the 40th anniversary of the WG site, I organized the Film Festival TIME together with Jasper Coppes and Danielle van Vree
time is not a thing that passes … it's a sea on which you float.’
