My Want of You Partakes of Me @ Tate Modern

The EMAP project My Want of You Partakes of Me by Sasha Litvintseva and Beny Wagner celebrates its premiere on 25 November 2023 at Tate Modern, London in the framework of "Science, Body, Anatomy".

In My Want of You Partakes of Me, Sasha Litvintseva and Beny Wagner source snippets from different moments in history to narrate a fundamental change in perception. Through the feature, the filmmakers elucidate how the physical and perceptual boundaries of our bodies have never ceased to evolve. From the poet Dante Alighieri to a Chinese molecular biology lab, from the science fiction author Octavia Butler to the late nineteenth century French physiologist Claude Bernard, the duo of filmmakers weave a fragmented narrative exploring how self-recognition emerges from different historical models of the body.

The premiere takes place on 25 November 2023, 18.00–20.00.
