In this podcast, we talk to filmmaker and visual artist Wu Tsang about her way of understanding (and practicing) the ungraspable nature of the moving image through her concept of magic realism, as well as other reality-modification strategies. We talk about big and small stories, about myths and clichés, and about rewriting and unravelling timelines, part real and part fictional. We also look at the benefits of collaborative processes and at the need to challenge and dismantle the idea of individual authorship in the visual arts.

In this podcast, Seba Calfuqueo dismantles heroes, monuments and categories, while reclaiming gaps, taboos and the elements as spaces of complexity from which to strike up conversation. They also talk about owning where you come from and the position from which you speak. And they argue for the collective occupation of spaces that have historically been denied to the Mapuche people. For Seba, being Mapuche means having a connection with the land, and in this conversation they present a way of understanding of life in which queerness is the very essence of nature.
