Leo Adef's videotape archives (60’) screening spanned eight years of intimate encounters. Both fragment and continuum, the piece reached from individual universes, the matter for sense-making and sense-breaking perception: of the self, the bodily, its surroundings, and the intrinsic grief of probing through all three. Encompassing queer experiences across Berlin, Kyiv, Buenos Aires, Athens, São Paulo, Barcelona, Prague, and Warsaw, Leo Adef's act of editing connected the dots between outward expression and inward articulation. The presentations mirrored the project's promise: to remain open to fast-paced transformation and deep-degree vulnerability. A meta-image of the archive itself: the two closed-door iterations of Leo Adef's screenings followed by conversations aimed to enrich their body of work by facing intimacy with intimacy.
