Selected from over 160 applications and assessed by a board comprising of producers, artists, and Film London Artists’ Moving Image Network, the selected artists are:Įstablished in 2017 by Film London Artists’ Moving Image Network (FLAMIN) and supported by Arts Council England and established with support from The Fenton Arts Trust, the Fellowship builds on FLAMIN’s successful work at the core of the UK’s moving image ecology. Other projects will explore how folklore traditions and ancient rituals speak to the tensions of our contemporary world, such as post-industrialism and migration, and the portrayal of memory loss through physical decay. Projects supported through this round of The Fellowship explore a variety of topical themes and viewpoints, including delving into the liberation and confinement that technologies can have on society and individuals, the notion and construct of Blackness through time and space, and investigating queer histories through the creation of game-like environments and characters. The selected artists represent various creative approaches such as hand-drawn animation, interweaving personal footage with staged scenes, layering multimedia, and combining dance and performance with poetry.
The program’s £15,000 in funding provides £2,500 in seed money to each artist for the development of their work. Film London has announced the selection of six artist-filmmakers to participate in the fifth edition of the FLAMIN Fellowship, which offers mentoring and funding, access to audiences, curators, and art advisors by supporting innovative projects from filmmakers at the early stage of their careers.
