Amanda
Nell Eu (Malaysia)In dialogue with Tania De Rozario https://youtu.be/SvmCK0Rh0yE SYNOPSISIn media depictions of femininity, deviations
from the norm often lead to the monstrous. In this session, under the auspices
of their shared love for the Pontianak, we bring together two artists who have
been embarking on creative detours from this trodden path. Amanda Nell Eu is at the forefront of a new
generation of Malaysian filmmakers. Tania De Rozario is an established artist from
Singapore who has developed a multidisciplinary body of work that fuses concerns
with gender, sexuality and the politics of art. In this session, they will discuss
the creative potential of being from yet apart from one’s own culture, the outsider
disposition during coming of age, female ghosts within Southeast Asian mythology
- and how these threads lead to feminist statements through art. SHORT FILM SCREENINGS• Spit (Malaysia, UK / 2010 / 10min)• It's Easier to Raise Cattle (Malaysia /
