The installation of multiple screens will offer a kaleidoscopic whole, in which image and dialogue correspond in different contexts. The consciously created distraction will invite the spectator to move between the films and to extract a personal experience from the gained impressions. In this installation \u2018Squeeze Crush Press Blush\u2019 will offer a non-linear journey across a multitude of feelings.<\/p>\n

In \u2018Squeeze Crush Press Blush\u2019, curated by Afra Eisma and Marnix van Uum, twenty-one artists and filmmakers invite you to take a dive into their ever-changing minds. A crack in the gloss, a break, a rupture, a split, a breach, a slit, a smack, a smash, a blow, a bang, a grin, our mind is a container. The selected One Minutes were sent in from China, Belgium, Finland, France, Greece, Netherlands, Suriname, Turkey, United Kingdom and United States.<\/p>\n
