Residency

Jacqueline Holt will use her residency at PS² to continue an exploration of collaborative film making and creating moments of intimacy from everyday life. Over the course of the residency she will continue her development of a series of films that look at identity, unsaid histories and communication as translation. Jacqueline will bring together artists to take part in a workshop and improvised performance/ film which will then be screened  on Thursday 1st February as part of Late Night Art.
