About Proliferations- Part I
Filmmaker & performer Liz Rosenfeld has developed this new project in collaboration with the sonic duo HacklanderHatam and in the wake of her first feature film FOXES. For this project they have built off their research into the unwanted & censored culture of the early 20th Century Russian avant-garde.
This new film pines towards a future vision that surpasses generally accepted structural limitations of the human condition. The piece moves beyond the capabilities of human perceptive apparatuses, the ego, dimensions of time and space, notions of gender, sexuality, and other societal norms.

During her time at LUX, Liz will conduct creative research regarding questions dealing with queer dystopia, a positive embrace of apocalypse, invisible genocide, and drawing parallels between the way information was publicly disseminated in the early days of the AIDS/ HIV crisis, and the current state of climate change and environmental destruction.
