Consider is an analog, imageless film that critiques the distorted portrayal of war in television media, focusing on the contrast between the harsh reality of the Gaza genocide and its televised representation, as observed from afar by the artist in Brazil. Through a series of physical perforations in the film, each puncture allows light to pass through, symbolizing the martyred civilians of Gaza. These points of light resemble distant stars—numerous, yet beyond full human comprehension— conveying both the vastness of the loss and the inadequacy of televised images to capture its true scale. The film challenges the reduction of these lives to mere statistics, urging the viewer to engage with the martyrs as luminous presences, while recognizing that the full reality of this ongoing genocide remains beyond the capacity of visual representation.

Ж has a non-specialised and situated practice that explores the energetic, material, economic, political, and emotional cycles of (semio)capitalism. His work uses various strategies, materials, and media to reveal how these forces shape perception, memory, and subjectivity, especially in the context of our current ecological crisis. His artistic propositions have taken the form of films, video installations, counter-spaces, writings, performances, and public space interventions, all aimed at reintegrating artistic practice into specific social and political contexts.

This is a silent 5-minute film and is on loop from 10 AM till 7 PM from Saturday to Thursday.
