Luminous Matter

A video essay that makes use of the artists' personal home-video archives, Luminous Matter weaves a story that traces the emergence of queer subjects. Blending feminist philosophy and cinematic theory, it is a collaborative work between artists, writers, and lovers Bianca Arnold and Moss Berke. Luminous Matter invites viewers to experience the transformative power of the everyday, where love, dress up, and play are held close as methods of queer co-becoming.
