Everything Visible – Japanese Indie Animated Shorts

Visual media has become an inescapable part of our daily lives, and it is increasingly difficult for artists to stand out among the crowd. This program, curated by film critic and journalist Dr. Catherine Munroe Hotes, features recent works by independent artists who are cultivating their own distinct visions through their art. The artists come from a range of backgrounds from across Japan. There are a number of different styles represented, including stop motion, hand drawn, and CG animation. This is a program full of contrasts that challenges us to think about our relationship to the world around us in all its diverse aspects.
