Explorations in the Ecotone: SLUDGE au naturel

In conjunction with Open Studio with David Sherman and Rebecca Barten (6pm)

$10 [tickets]; members free

Our most experimental and dynamic cinematic series, SLUDGE combines multiple 16mm films from the VSW film archive and projects them simultaneously, bending meanings of historic media into critical, silly and thrilling new narratives. This season’s eco-SLUDGE, SLUDGE au naturel, mines our film collection for the environmental and ecological, creating a stirring stew of natural forces and biological figures, from creepy crawlies to the awesome sublime (with a few surprises spiced in). Come join our growing community of offbeat film appreciators and witness the sensational SLUDGE experiment for yourself! Curated and projected by Mary Lewandowski.

Perhaps VSW’s most unique cinematic experience, the SLUDGE series combines multiple 16mm films from the deepest corners of the VSW film archive and projects them simultaneously, creating a sensational experience in pop maximalism.
