"Hosts" - Carlos Salazar-Lermont (Venezuela)

AUDIENCE SELECTION form: https://forms.gle/3Mix3ms4a3cxcbbT7 SPECIAL MENTION by the Jury as a collective TECHNICAL SHEET Artist: Carlos Salazar-Lermont Participants: María Alejandra Pachecho, Angel Blanco León, and Eidy Cavalieri Organized and filmed by Carlos Salazar-Lermont Edited by Gabriel Suárez Music by Andrea Ludovic Sponsored by the Association of Venezuelans in Missouri, and funding provided by Production Grant awarded by the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts at Washington University in St. Louis and the CityStudioSTL Award Awarded by the Office of Community Engaged Practices for the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts at Washington University in St. Louis SINOPSIS Hosts is originally a 3-channel video that portrays Venezuelan immigrants making a dish that is considered a symbol of Venezuelan identity: the arepa. I filmed them in their own kitchens after an open call for volunteers to participate in the project. With Hosts, I sought to create empathy towards Venezuelan immigrants, while also expressing a sense of community among members of the community. I integrated symbolic aspects taken from religion into the work to convey a sense of spirituality, but from a secular point of view. The private space and the ritual act try to enhance the feeling of intimacy in the videos.
