Incomplete Evidence: The Critical Affection Zine Workshop

This workshop is part of Incomplete Evidence, a film festival and workshop series presented as part of Chapter’s season of events celebrating the work of Michelle Williams Gamaker.
In collaboration with Dr Meena Saverimuttu (Cardiff University), artist and filmmaker Michelle Williams Gamaker presents a zine workshop inspired by her Critical Affection Trilogy.
Grounded in a deep love for and knowledge of film history, Williams Gamaker’s trilogy resists the colonial and imperialist shape of that history through acts of “fictional activism” and “fictional healing.” In the same spirit of creativity, speculation, and fandom, this zine workshop invites participants to create a zine (a low-cost magazine pronounced as “zeen”) that draws on their experience of Williams Gamaker’s films or other media they enjoy.
You'll be guided in making an eight-page zine that you can take home.
All materials will be provided, including scissors, markers, pencils, washi tapes, scrapbook materials, and images and other materials related to the Critical Affection Trilogy. You're welcome to bring your own materials as well.
This workshop is free, but places are strictly limited, so book now to secure your spot.

Mae’r gweithdy yma’n rhan o Tystiolaeth Anghyflawn, sef gŵyl ffilmiau a chyfres o weithdai a gyflwynir fel rhan o dymor Chapter o ddigwyddiadau sy’n dathlu gwaith Michelle Williams Gamaker.
Mewn cydweithrediad â Dr Meena Saverimuttu (Prifysgol Caerdydd), bydd yr artist a’r gwneuthurwr ffilm Michelle Williams Gamaker yn cyflwyno gweithdy cylchgronau wedi’i ysbrydoli gan ei thrioleg Hoffter Beirniadol.
Gyda gwreiddiau mewn gwybodaeth a hoffter dwfn o hanes ffilm, mae trioleg Williams Gamaker yn gwrthsefyll siâp trefedigaethol ac imperialaidd yr hanes hwnnw drwy weithredoedd o “ymgyrchu ffuglennol” a “iacháu ffuglennol”. Yn yr un ysbryd o greadigrwydd, dyfalu, a chefnogi, mae’r gweithdy cylchgrawn yma’n gwahodd cyfranogwyr i greu cylchgrawn zine (cylchgrawn cost-isel, a gaiff ei ddweud fel “zîn”) sy’n defnyddio’u profiad nhw o ffilmiau Williams Gamaker neu gyfryngau eraill maen nhw’n eu mwynhau.
Bydd y cyfranogwyr yn cael eu tywys i greu cylchgrawn wyth tudalen y gallan nhw fynd ag e adre gyda nhw.
Darperir y deunyddiau i gyd, gan gynnwys siswrn, marcwyr, pensiliau, tapiau washi, deunyddiau llyfr sgrap, a lluniau a deunyddiau eraill sy’n ymwneud â’r drioleg Hoffter Beirniadol. Os hoffent, mae croeso i gyfranogwyr ddod â’u deunyddiau eu hunain hefyd.
Mae’r gweithdy am ddim, ond nifer cyfyngedig o lefydd sydd, felly cofrestrwch nawr i gadw’ch lle!
