UNDO
Video installation by Nargess Behrouzian & Pooyesh Frozandeh
Implantieren Festival

UNDO explores unlearning and collective archiving in a two-day workshop in Neu-Isenburg. Our goal is to explore and experiment together while creating an archive of untold stories. The process will culminate in the production of a video that will be presented at the Neu-Isenburg Cinema Club and at the Frankfurt LAB in November.
By collecting narratives, photos, videos and other materials documenting participants' experiences, we will reimagine the site's archive in poetic, performative and creative ways. This also includes unlearning the places through individual or group collages.
