We invite you to the
screening of
Open Invitation followed by a
talk by
Thejaswi Shivanand.
The film visually explores the relationship of the human form to the landscape. There is also an attention to time in the film, which seeks to evoke a sense of expanse and immersion. The film has no words, and is non-narrative.

Manush John is an artist and filmmaker who is interested in critically looking at human systems and knowledge creation in the context of impending environmental catastrophe.
Open Invitation Collective is a group of artists who share similar concerns around ecology, the environment and how we inhabit our planet. After a year-long research process they are excited to share these art works where they explore geological time, ancient landscape and human presence through conscious listening. The art works that we have created are contemplative, immersive and experiential.
This project has been supported by SONIC MATTER, Switzerland and SWISSNEX, India.
