"All my films poems paintings play more or less between inner and outer events." – Joanna Margaret Paul

Filmmaker and curator Peter Todd presents a programme of 12 films screened for the first time to an international audience by New Zealand poet, painter, and filmmaker Joanna Margaret Paul. Often shot and edited in camera, her films chronicle motherhood and domestic life, the worn traces of urban settlement and the persistent presence of the natural world. Todd’s accompanying essay places Joanna Margaret Paul work in the lineage of filmmakers Margaret Tait and Robert Bresson, and painter Frances Hodgkins.

"Motifs return in her films or what she has filmed. They become motifs through accumulation. A way that is perhaps both a becoming familiar with, getting ones bearings, and just being." – Peter Todd
