OCT 26-28 | EXHIBITION | THE GREY SPACE IN THE MIDDLE

A container ship is not an inanimate object. The ship that travels thousands of miles on the high seas is full of life, stories, tragedy and hope. The harbours reached, the industrial landscape one encounters, the cargo that floats in an endless ocean. Anina is a psycho-geographic film essay, documenting the ethnographic tendencies of the industrial landscape and its malevolent stature over the individual. The Shipping Industry’s ever-shifting landscape, affecting even this interaction you are having with this texts, crafts its own mythology.
