Undoing the ordinary, the familiar, and the forgotten, the video poems in this special screening bring past relics into the present, use common tools in expected ways, and transform everyday spaces into ritualistic settings.In conversation with the wondrous domestic landscape of "Dawn Cerny: Portmeirion," the featured video artists excavate and archive personal, familial, and found histories through language, craft, movement, and play. Objects are activated, memories are illuminated, and the private and public intertwine to reveal the importance of places and props in shaping our relationships.
Following the screening, join Cadence Video Poetry Festival co-directors Rana San and Chelsea Werner-Jatzke for an in-person and virtual discussion, bringing together participating artists from Seattle and across the globe to explore questions such as: what do we hold precious?
Cadence Video Poetry Festival is presented by Northwest Film Forum, and programmed in collaboration with Seattle author Chelsea Werner-Jatzke and intermedia artist Rana San. Cadence approaches video poetry as a literary genre presented as visual media that makes new meaning from the combination of text and moving image. Featuring screenings, an artist residency, generative workshops for youth and adults, and juried awards, the festival fosters critical and creative growth around the medium of video poetry.
The 2025 festival takes place during National Poetry Month with in-person events April 25–27 at Northwest Film Forum and online April 25–May 4.
