Artists’ Moving Image Northern Ireland (AMINI) present a day of screenings and discussion in association with the MAC and Visual Artists Ireland.

Free, booking essential • Book Now

The event will explore Artists’ Moving Image production in Northern Ireland. It will feature a screening of New Work from Northern Ireland: a 2-part review of contemporary artists’ moving image practice from Northern Ireland. This touring programme was created in consultation with curator Alissa Kleist.

The screenings will be followed by Do you want to produce Artists’ Moving Image?, a conversation with artist Myrid Carten about her current project, reflecting on production structures both north and south of the border. Carten and an invited panel will discuss how artists collaborate with producers and how this relationship can develop and inform the work.

This afternoon programme will be followed in the evening by the Jarman Award Screenings: a showcase of works from artists at the forefront of experimentation in filmmaking today.  This year’s nominated artists, Larry Achiampong & David Blandy, Jasmina Cibic, Lawrence Lek, Daria Martin, Hardeep Pandhal and Margaret Salmon present innovative, entertaining and diverse films that tackle the world’s big topics. We will be joined in conversation by Jarman nominee Hardeep Pandhal.
