I assisted with curating and managing of 'Deptford Film Club', a monthly event organised by Looking Forward in collaboration with Empathy & Risk and ACAVA. I initiated 'Deptford Film Club' following the lockdown restrictions in 2021 with the intention of creating collective and discursive spaces in the local area. Featured artists were both locally and internationally based, they also represented both established and emerging practices.
Each event featured 3 artist films which was then followed by a live Q&A between artists and viewers.
Throughout the programme, we received/collected feedback from audiences and participating artists. Attendees reciprocated the colloquial and welcoming atmosphere of the screening events. Motivations for attending included curiosity for the event, interest in the featured artists/films, and an interest in becoming more involved in local/community events.

The second instalment of Deptford Film Club featured videos by Francis Almendárez, Zain Al Sharaf Wahbeh, Carla Geronimi. Curated by Carolina Lio and Katerina Matheson.
