– SAW Video is honoured to present the work of media arts legend Pierre Hébert in an exclusive screening and live performance. The screening, Surface Tensions, includes films he made during his 34-year tenure at the National Film Board of Canada and his newer independent video productions. Hébert invites us to think about our relationship with images, and by extension, how we interact with the world around us. The filmmaker will be present at the screening to introduce and discuss his work. The following evening, he will give a special live performance of his piece Tropismes accompanied by clarinetist Lori Freedman.
