Scott Stark: The rule of the game

Taking the same essence and properties of the material with which he works and turning them into a playing field, Scott Stark has built his work (which is about 90 films besides installations, collage and performance) in which each of the items that compose it are made according to a revealing premise: “I like to set up a situation, give it some parameters, and see what happens”, says Stark. These are the rules of the game that Stark invents, but which are nothing more than a starting point towards an experimentation without limits and without complexes, the one which opens the windows and lets chance pass by.

Return to Paradise

Le paradis (2010). María Ruido

Returning to Coruña after 20 years of making the first films is like closing a circle, which starts in front of the camera and ends behind it, which passes from the individual body to the collective body, from performance to visual rehearsal, from making with certain unconsciousness to make with years of responsibility, but with the same interest in a cinema and a peripheral art, outside the center, beyond the center.

The first International Artistic Residences of Cinematographic Creation – BAICC started in 2017: a very wished project by the (S8) that came into being thanks to the support of AC/E and the LIFT, reaffirming the strong commitment of the Mostra with supporting training and artistic creation in alternative spaces.

After a successful first call with more than 15 proposals received, ‘Relieves’ of Tono Mejuto was the project selected to be developed during five weeks in the Liaison of Independent Filmmakers of Toronto. The final result will be screened, in world-wide première, during the 9th Mostra de Cinema Periférico, that will take place in A Coruña from 25th May to 3rd June 2018.

We interviewed Tono during his last days in Canada. Find below his comments about his experience in the residence and some advances of his work: info
