WATCH: History is a Black Circle (Hamid Waheed)

Norwegian artist Hamid Waheed‘s short film History is a Black Circle (2020) will be available to view on this page 6 – 19 June 2022. This online screening is in connection with the event The Deviant Product #Bergen, focussing on contemporary queer experimental moving images, on 9 June 2022 at Landmark, Bergen.

History is a Black Circle is an experimental video essay that revolves around questions of art, queer experience and history. It’s a story that transcends the fabrics of time and space to inhabit the bodies of past, present and future – and it does so through an array of video sources and formats. The film is a recorded documentary, speculative fiction and a reflection on the notion of ‘black’.
