‘The Sun Has No Shadow’ (2022) is an intimate visual journey across a series of raves, clubs and experimental live performances; a personal film manifesto as well as a tribute to London. The fragmentation of the visual experience, practices of self-observation and the tradition of portraiture are some of the reflections surrounding Salvadori’s filmic research.
While ‘The Sun Has No Shadow’ unfolds as a consistent narrative intentionally developed by the artist, based on her individual memories and experiences, ‘TRESOR Tapes’ emerges as a multifaceted narrative from the collective memories and experiences of a whole community. It was commissioned by the famous Berlin nightclub for the show ‘TRESOR 31 Techno, Berlin und die große Freiheit’ at Kraftwerk, Berlin. In it, the artist functions as a vector ordering diverse cinematic elements taken from TRESOR’s archives, to which multiple filmmakers have contributed with their visual documents. Presented together, the two films approach different ways of dealing with personal & collective archives and memory as well as reflections around club documentation.
Followed by a conversation between Rebecca Salvadori and Jennifer Lucy Allan.
