BECAUSE WE DIDN’T FIND WHAT WE WERE LOOKING FOR WHAT WE FOUND DIDN’T EXIST WITHOUT US.

DOUBLE NEGATIVE FILM COLLECTIVE

Founded in 2004, the Double Negative Collective (le collectif Double négatif) is a Montreal-based group of film, video, and installation artists dedicated to creating, curating, and disseminating experimental film.

Ten of the Double Negative Film Collective’s members exhibited their own version of a 16mm Celluloid loop installations that described their own way of translating the sentence into a moving image. We, on the other hand, thought to link all the involved member’s links in one spot, hoping for you, to dig and find the rest of what didn’t exist without us.

Check out the video of the loops exhibited at Ctrllab in 2007
