WORK IN PROGRESS
Ariel Kirk-Gushowaty’s
Learning to Live Now: Don’t Look, Just See
Screening & Snacks Saturday November 23rd 5-7pm
Artist Talk & Discussion Saturday November 30th 2-4pm
Burrard View Fieldhouse, 545 N Slocan Street
For this inaugural month of our WORK IN PROGRESS series, Iris Film Collective’s
Ariel Kirk-Gushowaty will share a rough cut of her experimental documentary and
offer guests a chance to try the “Kasina Mind Machine” (A Meditation Machine)
as well as eye exercises from Aldous Huxley’s “The Art of Seeing”.
Learning to Live Now explores the idea of vision as a bridge between the mind
and body. As such, our eyes are often deeply affected by an ego-driven way of
being in the world. However, our eyes are also physical. If we can bring a
softness into our way of seeing; if we can become more embodied in our way of
seeing, can we perhaps, in the course of everyday life, exert a powerful
influence on our state of mind? Taking this as a jumping off point, Ariel
tumbles into the pseudo-science of eye exercises, the mysteries of vision, the
question of screens, and the advantages of being silly.
Both events are free of charge!
This is the first in the Iris Film Collective’s WORK IN PROGRESS series, a
month-long residency at the Burrard View Fieldhouse featuring a different Iris
Film Collective member each month who will be using the space to work on their
individual projects. The public is invited to pop by while they are working; as
well, two evenings in the month will be devoted to public events. This is a
great opportunity to meet the artists and see what they are up to, as well as
to visit the Fieldhouse and check out our setup!
Ariel Kirk-Gushowaty is an experimental filmmaker and photo-based artist. Her
practice explores consciousness, relationships, and technology. As a parent of
two young daughters she also has a special interest in how these topics are
