Járnbrautarmálið / a railway case and Pictures On Pink Paper

Eva Rocco Kenell presents her work in progress Járnbrautarmálið / a railway case, where she adress questions around multiple layers of narration and normative storytelling. Island is one of the few countries in the world that does not have a railway. During the year 1984 - 1927 the topic was frequently discussed. Járnbrautarmálið became a topic on everyones lips. One day in Reykjavik, a grey and distopian housing area was dicovered by the artist, this was the starting point for a journey along the non-existent railway.

Pictures On Pink Paper is a film by Lis Rhodes from the cinenova collection that deals with how the oppression of women can be articulated without re-representing the language that defines power relations. Women are thinking and questioning this order. It is a critic of past experiences and ways of thinking.The film contains multiple layers and threads, both of possibilities and contradictions.

The film and discussion will be in english

We hope to see you there, Eva, Kerstin, Gökçe, Martina
