CALLING ALL ARTISTS - screen dance, video poetry, experimental film

LETTERS FROM THE SKYscreen dance, video poetry, experimental film, artist's film, video art, microcinema, animation Objectives How does climate change affect your habitat? Participating artists should respond to the brief and the theme of evidence of climate change.

About Me (human/individual)/interests, work..short bio/ THis is the most important. It is the only way to know that you are not a SPAMBOT!Be generous!
Kai Lossgott is a contemporary artist and poet whose personal practice currently focuses on exploring green politics and systems theory through experimental film, performance and drawing, for instance his engravings in plant leaves. He is also known for his public performance collaborations on the Spier Contemporary 2007, Infecting the City 2009, the Badilisha Poetry X-change 2009, Cape 09 and Out the Box 2010.

His individual investigations since 2007 have focused on living systems, fascinated by convergences in ecology, neurology and linguistics. He is interested in biophysical language patterns and the vulnerable instincts which drive them - silence, sensitivity and acts of sensing. In a human-centred world, his aim is most often to work from a life-centred perspective, influenced by the philosophy of Deep Ecology.

Born in Germany in 1980, he lives and works in Cape Town, South Africa. As a teenager at the National School of the Arts in Johannesburg, he studied sculpture and painting. He holds a BJourn from Rhodes University, majoring in documentary filmmaking and dance theatre, an Advanced Diploma in Visual Arts from UNISA, and an MA in Creative Writing from the University of Cape Town, all three cum laude. He is bored and frustrated with the grammar of conventional film and works to transcend and re-invent its language. Kai’s work has been widely exhibited as part of numerous South African art award shows, and shown at major experimental film festivals on five continents. He has lectured at various South African universities, as well as facilitating community arts initiatives.
