April Lin 林森

April Lin 林森 is Stockholm-based interdisciplinary artist, independent curator, and film programmer investigating image-making and world-building as sites for the construction, sustenance, and dissemination of co-existent yet conflicting truths. Working across moving image, performance, creative computing, writing, and installation, they interweave strands of auto-biography, documentary, queer ecology, and new media in service to a collective remembering of forgotten pasts, for a critical examination of normalized presents, and for a visualizing of freer futures as, of course, imagined from the periphery.

Uniting their genre-fluid body of work is a commitment to centring oppressed knowledges, building an ethics of collaboration around reciprocal care, and exploring the linkages between history, memory, and interpersonal and structural trauma. Their work has been shown at the Museum of the Moving Image New York, Sheffield DocFest, V&A Museum, Edinburgh International Film Festival, Arebyte Gallery, and 4:3 Boiler Room, among others.
