Screenshot from film chapter ‘(Un)Touching Ground’, where archival images that document a history of protest and resistance movements in Lebanon are put through a process of data-moshing. The disruption of the image in this pixelated moment in the film forms to highlight the mass of people that make up these movements for intersectional revolution. Frame of Accountability, 01:00:00, Helene Kazan, 2024.

This is part our of series on 'documents' in collaboration with the-documents.org. Read the introduction here.

Helene Kazan is an artist, writer and educator. Her work investigates ‘risk’ as a lived condition produced through the conjoined violent effects of capitalism and conflict. This is observed in the colonial roots of international law and its material formation of the lived-built environment. In response, she uses decolonial, feminist, poetic and critical-legal approaches in her work, which explores ways of dismantling the ongoing effects of neo-colonial violence towards wider frameworks of accountability and justice.
