“How does it feel to be black... or dark-skinned, or white? What is light? And what does light do to a photo of a dark face? A white woman spends some time in a black community, where she talks to people about the colour of their skin, and about the photos that she takes of them. She asks, they respond. They ask, she responds—in an investigation of identity, the meaning of, and the clichés around ‘black’ and ‘white.’ Julika Rudelius uses the act of photography to portray her models, and simultaneously uses video to ‘register’ this partly staged, sometimes uneasy, sometimes funny process, so that a portrait of the photographer is created at the same time.” (Esma Moukhtar)

Your Blood is as Red as Mine by Julika Rudelius, part of the film & video program of transmediale 2018 face value
