Panos Aprahamian: Karantina Trilogy – screening & conversation
About this event
Three films. One evening. WIELS invites you to dive into the work of Lebanese artist Panos Aprahamian. Discover the unofficial 'Karantina Trilogy' in the presence of the artist. Set in the former quarantine district at the mouth of the Beirut River, the three short films move between documentary and fiction to examine the forms of violence and extraction imposed on human and nonhuman bodies, as well as on the city's waterways. The screening will be followed by a conversation between Panos Aprahamian and director and researcher Farah Kassem. Films: Odorless Blue Flowers Awake Prematurely (2021, 6'), This Haunting Memory That Is Not My Own (2021, 30' 21"), More Spilled Blood Than Drinkable Water (2025, 19'). In English. In collaboration with hannefkensfoundation.
