Stones and Water Weight
Oglejte si Stones and Water Weight na spletu brezplačno s slovenskimi podnapisi. STONES & WATER WEIGHT responds to the need for new interpretations of HIV+ people. Mykki Blanco completes tasks that test the physical capabilities of the body and the boundaries of normative health to challenge society's perception on the fragilities of those who survive with the virus. In this era of globalized fitness culture through the use of social media, "looking healthy" matters much more than actually being healthy. Using endurance as the motivation for the performance, the video creates a new perception of HIV+ people as strong and resilient. Research references include the Atlas myth, the god of endurance that holds the earth and the skies over his shoulders, as well as the never ending climb of the Sisyphus myth. Commissioned by Visual AIDS in 2017 as part of ALTERNATE ENDINGS, RADICAL BEGINNINGS, a program of seven videos prioritizing Black narratives within the ongoing AIDS epidemic curated by Erin Christovale and Vivian Crockett for Visual AIDS.
