Family Portrait
Watch the trailer for Family Portrait, click here.
Family Portrait captures personal experiences of Eastern European upbringing. While struggling to remember the truth, surreal imagery compliments twisted memories.
What has really happened? Perhaps you remember it all wrong.
The family members unveil their realities in this dynamic and complex work. Intertwined bodies and technical, unexpected connections disarrange their own bloodline. Searching for freedom, one by one they are forced to leave the frame.
Do you notice strangers in the picture?
Family Portrait is a live performance continuation of a visual album/zine, created by KAMIENSKI. together with photographer Noel Shelley.
