Wilde is pleased to invite you to a special screening of Mat Collishaw’s film followed by a conversation with the artist.
“Sky Burial” is a meditation on death, ritual, humankind and nature. Collishaw creates an ambiguous, dystopian atmosphere in which existing death rites from the East have been transposed to a Western environment. “Sky Burial suggests that human relationships with nature are not altogether harmonious and that sublime meditations on death and dying in the form of a Requiem had become difficult for people dealing with death in a highly mechanical, post-industrial landscape.”
Wednesday, 11 September, 18:45 – 19:45
Cinerama Empire (72 rue de Carouge, Geneva)
