《C區、D體系》Area C, System D 從耶路撒冷到拉馬拉路上的交易,±60’分鐘,2016年
導演:Polina MEDVEDEVA
Filmed over the course of 2014/2015 in Al-Ram, Kufr Aqab and the Qalandia, Al Amari and Kaddura refugee camps, the documentary deals with informal sociopolitical structures in the area, which remains practically ungoverned by both Palestinian and Israeli authorities, focusing on the thriving grey economy and self-government along the main Jerusalem-Ramallah road, where shops and buildings are unlicensed, the cars often stolen and where the electricity and sewer lines are built on one’s own initiative.
Told from the perspectives of the shopkeepers and a group of young musicians, it is a parallel narration of both daily struggle and resilience, desperation and the power of individuals, whirled in a constant bustle of vibrant enterprise and rap.

Monument of Apron opened shop in 2015 as an experimental e-commerce reading experience and the online notebook of various co-conspirators along with artistic research collective Display Distribute. Collating both old and new labours of networked, female work, its 'products' feature the overstock of various projects and observations along with a surplus of thought and transaction. To 'purchase' an article here demands a re-evaluation, turning the dynamic of producer and consumer on its head with a series of questions. Be prepared to work for your 'fulfillment'.
Monument of Apron, or 圍群—a word play combining 圍裙 wéiqún (apron), that timeless utilitarian garment, with 群 qún (group, crowd, caboodle or gang)—considers all those relegated to under-compensated, thankless tasks and encourages the donning of the apron. The pocketed apron lends itself further to secrecy and theft—caching what’s owed and stowing it away for otherwise circulations. An apron is also a protector and shield. For the aproned squad, communication across picket fences and gossip are key forms of solidarity—modes of redistributive practice towards an undercommons.
