The past is never dead. It’s not even past - a project by MILJA RADOVIC and DANIEL DOMIG
An incarnational history is a history that resides not in the past but in the present / It is a history that must be experienced in order to be truly re-membered / A history that exists only as distant facts is not a story that can be woven into personal and political structures / Only the stories we allow to spill over into our everyday lives can bring forth a past that speaks truthfully to our future. We are a storied people /And so history must continuously be birthed into the spaces we share with others.
The past is never dead. It’s not even past.
Dr. Milja Radovic conducts specialised research in theology and film and her scientific work
traverses theology of ascesis, visual arts, history, nationalism, conflict and peacebuilding.
Daniel Domig explores the conditions and complexities of human relationships through the mediums of painting, installation and experimental film.
Film as History explores how early documentary film—especially between 1896 and 1939 in the Yugoslav region—can be used as a primary historical source, not just a supplementary one.
Frame & Spatial Memory: Through close analysis of framing techniques, the project shows how film creates spatial memories—structures that shape how we remember religious and ethnic communities.
