Granmé (2021-22, 02:31 min) is a short film, re-enacting a conversation with my grandmother, a Vodou priestess from Benin herself, on telekinesis, or, the art of moving objects at a distance with the power of one's own mind only. This short film is part of a multimedia wall installation with a direct visualization on ideologies of Afrofuturism situated in mysticism, technology, digital vodunism with an emphasis on the reconstruction of a spiritual ideal, human telekinesis, human and post-human identity, and the futurity of race, sexuality. |
