OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
British visual artist Eva Gold will talk on several of her projects from the last few years, with a focus on the role of cinema and the cinematic.
Eva Gold (b. 1994) works in a range of media, including sculpture, drawing and moving image. Taking a directorial approach to imagined scenes, she hints at hidden narratives and the possibility of an unknown threat. Power and violence recur as themes in Eva’s work, exploring the current social, political and economic environment, and specifically systems or structures that are based on a concept of hierarchy. She approaches the subject matter by stepping between the intimate and the vast, tuning her attention to the dimensions of the everyday, and the lingering resonance of passing events.
