JW3 presents a programme of experimental short films and live music by Austrian-British multidisciplinary artist Hugo Max.
Kosher Giraffes & Other Tails brings together projects devised over the last five years while Max has researched his ancestral heritage. Working at the intersection between creative mediums to illuminate blindspots in familial memory, he offers a unique reflection on Jewish identity, intergenerational engagement and the refugee experience. Displaced giraffes regularly congregate in his films as a mute chorus, appearing in fragmented narratives steeped in the sensual, spiritual and tragicomic.
Improvisations on solo viola will enter into dialogue with the films throughout the programme.
The screening will be followed by a live Q&A
