Early Monthly Segments returns May 7 to screen UK filmmaker Nicky Hamlyn’s That Has Been, White Light, and Tobacco Shed. In keeping with Early Monthly Segments’ ability to be awesome, they’ll not only host the screening, but will also feature an appearance by Nicky Hamlyn himself.
Hamlyn is a master of mise en scène. Utilizing the reflective nature of an aluminium lamp to capture the outside within the inside space, or the composed shots of chrome plated faucets competing in a visual rhythm as if to create entirely visual music, Hamlyn takes a subtle slow-burning approach to blowing your mind.
On Monday, May 7 at 8:00 pm Early Monthly Segments #39 will screen, as usual, at the Gladstone Hotel, Art Bar (1214 Queen Street W). Suggested donations for tickets is just $5. For more information, check the internet!
