Join us for Skin, inscribed - contemporary Brazilian hand-processed films, curated by visiting artist Tetsuya Maruyama, co-presented by TAPE LA and LA Filmforum.

‍

Just as a painter applies raw paint on a canvas, a filmmaker applies light(and other matters) on film strip. This hand-picked program features works produced at artist-run film labs (film laboratories by artists, for artists) scattered throughout the country, born from the vast and diverse geopolitical territories of Brazil.
