Many thanks to the artist Kerstin Honeit for her lecture INSIDE/OUT – VIEWING BERLIN THROUGH THE ARTISTIC PRACTICE and discussing the works of our participants within the Studio Program at BAI | Berlin Artist Residency, Art School, Arts Incubator, and Live Online Courses & Classes.
“Kerstin Honeit was born and raised in Berlin and has a strong connection to the city with its complex histories and constantly shifting and contradictory politics. This life-long entanglement is very much reflected in her work.
In her artist talk she will give insights into her research, that has evolved through her situated and embodied practice. Honeit will introduce a methodology of engagement that illustrates how we are intertwined with our bodies and backgrounds in the nearest surroundings.” (Text by courtesy of Kerstin Honeit)
Kerstin Honeit works as an artist with experimental documentary moving image formats. She lives in Berlin, where she studied Fine Arts and Stage Design at the Weißensee Kunsthochschule. In her video works, she researches cultural and linguistic modes of translation. Her focus is on the politics of the (film) voice and in particular on how the voice as a queer event, between the moving images, can shake up prevailing regimes of the gaze. In 2022, the monograph ‘Kerstin Honeit. Voice Works / Voice Strikes’ will be published by b_books-Verlag in 2022. Honeit’s works are presented internationally in exhibitions and at film festivals, including KINDL, Berlin / Whitechapel Gallery, London / Hammer Museum, LA / CAC, Quito / Fajr International Film Festival, Tehran / n.b.k., Berlin / Off Biennale Cairo / International Short Film Festival São Paulo / MMOMA, Moscow / HKW, Berlin / International Short Film Festival, Oberhausen / Arsenal Berlin / Berlinische Galerie, Berlin / Gallery 400, Chicago / BFI London / MCAD, Manila.
