A tiny free theatre, showing short films, and great film scenes out of context, in a scale model based on the now-demolished first Pantages Theatre. We are proud to host this year’s Moving Art short film festival as part of the Eastside Culture Crawl. The Vodville Cinema is hosted by the Vancouver Hack Space community workshop.

Unity

12^th Annual Eastside Culture Crawl Film and Video Exhibition

“Alone we are thread, together we are cloth.” 

Unity explores the beauty of connection – between people, ideas, and the natural world. From the intimate act of braiding hair to the intricate weaving of textiles, these works trace the ways in which individuality intertwines into collective creation. Artists this year draw together disparate strands: nature and a human voice, community and solitude, digital signal with analogue process. 

Each piece reminds us that unity is not uniformity, but the rhythm of many parts moving as one. Together, these works assemble a vision from fragments of memory and perspective, a liminal cloak that once opened reveals our togetherness in grief, our oneness with nature, and our mutual love for the buildings that hold our history. Even the great cat distribution system reveals its hand – evidence that harmony exists in the most mysterious networks of all. 

 Threads meet. Worlds overlap. The tree becomes greater than its rings.
