Refracting Spectres

Ghostly beings touching the living.
A space to converse through, and with, spectral images.
A slower pace to process disaster without hiding away from it.
To unfold mourning at the same time as the event being mourned.

Refracting Spectres explores a sceno-cinema-installation practice to facilitate mourning of catastrophic multirealities. Immersing the audience in the spectrality of projected films, the constructed cave cinema acts as a memorial, a holder of shifting memories. Through this exploration of apocalyptic media as multirealities, the project invites the release of the audience's hidden climate grief in a changing – and changed – world.
