The invited artists explored how to sustain intimacy in these highly mediated times, and how to imagine opportunities for communion across temporal and geographic distances.Director: Katarzyna PerlakCo - Director: Sophie AnsellCamera 1: Hicham GardafCamera 2: Maja NgomEditor: Katarzyna PerlakStills Photography: Miroslava Vecerova Costumes: Katarzyna Perlak, Sophie Ansell, Zahara O’ BrienStylist: Assia Ghendir Sound Mix: Lottie Lou PouletFilming equipment:&nbsp; Surplus Sounds, Morgan K.
