Zoë Buckman: Show Me Your Bruises, Then

Join artist Zoë Buckman for the virtual premiere of her new video work, Show Me Your Bruises, Then (2021-2022), followed by a conversation with Rose Director and Chief Curator Dr. Gannit Ankori. Written, directed, and performed by Buckman and featuring actors Cush Jumbo and Sienna Miller, this 17-minute, three-channel film is her first major filmic work and explores the multigenerational impact of domestic violence and the silence imposed on women’s bodies.

The screening and conversation will consider Show Me Your Bruises, Then, in relation to Buckman’s sculpture, According to Grandma (2019), currently on view in Fabricated Imaginaries: Crafting Art, as well as recent projects examining the Jewish female experience in domestic spaces, inviting audiences into a thoughtful and compassionate dialogue about art, storytelling, and social change.
