A word from Guest Curator Rana Siegel:

“A moving image can be described simply as a series of frames that when played in rapid sequence, produce a picture that is seemingly in motion. Yet beyond its mechanics lies a versatile medium where the lens takes on different roles and the image itself becomes a malleable material to be shaped and transformed.

In each program, the moving image is an eye that both disorients our focus and redirects our gaze. It is a guide leading us to places of intimate uncertainty; a narrator explaining to us the unknown. It is a rotating door opening to otherworldly terrains and spaces adrift in micro-cosmic dimensions. It is a collage canvas, a constructed surface, a stage set, and a sound box perfectly sized for a dissonant piece of wavering choreography.

For Moving_Image_00:05, we celebrate a range of works by artists who share their vision and craft, stretching the boundaries of this ever shifting medium. it is a testament to Chicago’s diverse breadth of creative ingenuity.”
