Images captured by a motion activated deer cam are presented as a flip book to mimic the flailing motions of the artist’s stressed and disturbed slumber.

Bodies of Knowledge

Image-maker Kali McMillan shows the chaos of sleep and the interruptions to its rhythms in a short film featuring the artist, shot between London and New York.

Presented on SHOWstudio.com as a part of Bodies of Knowledge.

SHOWstudio, Nick Knight and Emma Dabiri present a thought-provoking new body of work featuring over 50 leading international contributors, which seeks to challenge and reconsider how the body has been represented and imagined in visual culture and fashion image-making. Participants working across wide-ranging disciplines including fashion, art, music, film, sports and philosophy, were invited to create short films in response to physical and metaphysical attributes of the human body.

Edited and co-curated by the writer, academic and broadcaster Emma Dabiri, Bodies of Knowledge investigates both inside and outside of the human form to create a constellation of alternative knowledge systems proposed by the contributors.

This bold canon of work ranges from fashion film, 3D animation, video essays and spoken word pieces, to dance and musical performances.
