Working in the Pauses brings together works that ask who is able to speak, and highlight the structures which allow some voices to be heard more loudly than others. This screening is guest curated by artist, Kirsty Russell.
Kirsty’s practice is concerned with support, and in particular labour and maintenance work that often goes unseen. Here she is sharing two films which are helping her in growing a vocabulary with which to articulate questions of voice and language.

Part of Aberdeen Programme
The LUX Scotland Aberdeen Programme aimed to support early career Aberdeen-based artists and curators. The programme ran from 2018 to 2024 and has included job opportunities, workshops, screenings and online commissions. The programme was led by Project Manager Rachel Grant between 2021–24.
Supported by Aberdeen City Council Creative Funding, this continued our previous work to support, develop and promote artists’ moving image practices across Scotland, and builds on our work in the Aberdeen area.
