Description

NeMe, in collaboration with Lanitis Foundation and the Cyprus University of Technology presents The Mirror Stage, a video program and talks at Lanitis Foundation and other places in the Limassol city centre.

The events are focused in the presupposition that video has reached a level of consciousness that could potentially be determined through its contradictions. As such the program looks at video through the Lacanian, “Mirror Stage”. That is, how the reflected image acts as a basic ingredient in the constitution of the picture from the subject and how this can be translated as commentary on the state of video, today.

The program which is presented by IMCA and coordinated by Yiannis Colakides, includes:
