Shorts Program 3: Art
I Am Sarah Maple
USA, 2012, 13 minutes
Director: Ariel Fisher, Tyler Gurd
After being named winner of the '4 New Sensations' prize presented by the Saatchi Gallery, Sarah Maple's career as a young, feminist artist skyrocketed. However, her unabashed style incorporating feminist themes with her Muslim faith stirred up controversy that threatened her freedom as an artist as well as her safety. I Am Sarah Maple follows Sarah as she preps for her first solo show since the 'incident' and showcases her new-found ways to comment on feminism, religion and subvert societal norms with her infectious personality and not-so-G-rated humor.
Nathalie Trepanier: Sculptor of Forgotten Objects
Canada, 2012, 36 minutes
Director: Hélène Bélanger-Martin
The sculptor Nathalie Trépanier seeks to give a second life to objects we discard by creating characters made entirely from what she collects here and there. Over the course of three months, the director Hélène Bélanger-Martin and her crew followed the artist on the road in her quest for new objects as well as in her studio, the space where Nathalie's creative genius runs free.
Poustinia
USA, 2013, 27 minutes
Director: Kristian Berg
Gendron Jensen draws bones; detailed, precise, wondrous images of bones. Kicked out of a monastery in his 20's, Jensen honed his craft for 17 years as a semi-hermit on a rented farm in northern Minnesota before leaving for new life and love in the mountains of New Mexico. Called a 'forest eccentric', a technical virtuoso and a romantic visionary, Jensen conjures art from nature and his meticulously rendered, monumental drawings compel us to look beyond the ordinary to a deeper, spiritual realm.
The Singh Twins
USA, 2013, 21 minutes
Director: Ariel Fisher, Tyler Gurd, David Thompson
The Singh Twins is the remarkable story of identical twins Amrit and Rabindra Kaur Singh and their journey as artists. Today, the twins are renowned for their ability to create incredibly rich and intricate works spanning modern and historical topics through the traditional Indian Miniature style of painting.
