Synopsis

Siobhan Davies and David Hinton’s All This Can Happen is made entirely from found footage and photographs from the early days of the moving image, including material from Etienne-Jules Marey and the beginning of the 20th century. Bringing together their distinctive ways of looking at the world, from choreography to moving images, both artists take us on a meditative expedition, following in the footsteps of the protagonist in Robert Walser’s 1917 short story “The Walk”.

Frame by frame, we recount this man’s thoughts and experiences through a constellation of images from a world in all its random diversity. As in a flick book, ordinary movements from everyday activities appear, evolve and freeze, creating a striking choreographic work that playfully blurs our sense of memory, imagination and our sense of self.
