'A Particular Reality: Fake Woke Situation'

Film, 41:42 minutes. A Particular Reality is a project intended to forge creative connections across the city of London, between individuals who identify with 'feeling isolated' in respect of their cultural identity and lived-experience. The isolation that many young artists speak of is likely to increase if left unchecked and if the potential communities that could strengthen their practice remain atomised. Students from Goldsmiths and Kingston expressed a desire to be proactive in helping to address the situation, not only for themselves but for the benefit of future students. To this end it is hoped that what can be learned from this project will be instrumental. 'A Particular Reality: Fake Woke Situation' is a compilation of video, image, text and sound; chosen excerpts and documentation of individuals’ work. It is the first attempt to consolidate our conversations and make them known to others.
