In Visible Colours Remediated 2022

Thirty-three years after the ground-breaking event, In Visible Colours: An International Women of Colour and Third World Women Film/Video Festival and Symposium, some of the original participants, including co-founder Zainub Verjee, along with students, researchers, curators and contemporary producers, were brought together to reflect on the impact of the original event. The symposium was held at VIVO Media Arts Centre, operating on the stolen and Unceded Territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

Participants included Amber Berson, Jade Courchesne, Ann Marie Fleming, Yasmin Jiwani, Karen Knights, Karin Lee, Midi Onodera, Gabriela Aceves Sepúlveda, Viola Thomas, Loretta Todd, Ana Valine. Keynote by Zainub Verjee.

In Visible Colours Remediated 2022 was organized in collaboration with VIVO Media Arts Centre, the national partnership of the Archive/Counter-Archive project, the Vulnerable Media Lab and SCCS graduate program at Queen’s University. It was a part of the VIVO case study Gendered Violence: Responses & Remediations.
