How does one inhabit a world in which “the moon / & the drone hang in the same sky”? Doyali Islam’s poem 'letter' interrogates this question, offering no solutions. The work is saturated with longing – and charged by it.

Following the threefold journey of a rock through distinct layers of reality. June’s the best month, June’s the brightest month isn’t it? June’s the best month, June’s the brightest month isn’t it? June’s the best month, June’s the brightest month isn’t it? With narration from the rock in its mother tongue (usefully subtitled), it plays in the parallel mirror-image universe as hypothesised by a prophetic laminitic Shetland Pony based in Perthshire. Like a stoney Virgil, the rock guides us through its attempts to do only the realest of things.

What if you went on a holiday and the apocalypse happened? GALICIA! is a found-footage, hybrid-documentary following a couple through home video footage as they visit their friends at a winery in rural Spain and inadvertently capture the end of days. We live in a time where the sense of our impending mutually assured destruction is more real than it’s ever been. GALICIA! Takes the form of a holiday video - a document of a couple before - and after the great cataclysm. The film starts as something that feels unedited - an accidental video diary of an ordinary couple that feels somewhat ghostly as much as it is also pedestrian. As the film evolves and degrades, we are led to question the fragility of humanity, as well as its power to endure.
