In the Sydney Film Festival film,\u00a0<em>The search for Emak Bakia, <\/em>the\u00a0<span style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;\">Spanish documentary film director,\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oskar Alegr\u00eda went to the journey for searching for &#8216;Emak Bakia&#8217;, which is inspired by Man Ray&#8217;s short film, called\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;\">cin\u00e9po\u00e9me,<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><em style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Emak Bakia!<\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The both of them appears to share the same\u00a0fascination of this expression.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Ray found Emak Bakia first in a epitaph in France and Alegr\u00eda noticed that this epitaph\u00a0of a clown did not have a death date:\u00a0&#8220;(The memory of) clown never die.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Failed to\u00a0search a house called Emak Bakia in Ray&#8217;s film, Alegr\u00eda Instead found the vintage shop with that name. The owner of the shop said that <em style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Emak Bakia!\u00a0<\/em>is<em style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/em>one of his favourite films and the\u00a0name was choosing him not chosen by him.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">There was\u00a0the postcard\u00a0written with &#8220;Are you behaving yourself?&#8221;, when Alegr\u00eda was researching archives of\u00a0 postcards with\u00a0images of buildings. As he couldn&#8217;t find the record of any receiver in that era, he\u00a0compared the difficulty to\u00a0shooting the pig&#8217;s nightmare.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">The closest trace of scenes\u00a0of Ray&#8217;s film was the\u00a0house with\u00a0unique columns.\u00a0Alegr\u00eda was informed that a Romanian princess visited\u00a0the place\u00a0with the same reason one month ago and the house\u00a0is belong to her grandfather.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">The OST was composed by the contemporary musician, who visited the house with another creative cause and collected the sound of the building.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">It\u00a0is interesting to find out that the person who is searching disappearing languages like Baroque language here, still makes a mistake in foreign languages: Korean is mistaken as\u00a0Taiwanese in the letter, which was found at\u00a0Ray&#8217;s grave.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">We get lost. On the way of searching the meaning of our lives, we find something new and unexpected.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">What I admire is Man Ray&#8217;s challenging and experimental approach to\u00a0create arts like his film <em>Emak Bakia!<\/em>.\u00a0With the same reason, I am inspired by Lee Miller\u00a0who\u00a0developed Solarisation technique together\u00a0as Ray&#8217;s life and work partner and who was less\u00a0recognised for her contribution to creative communities as a female artist.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<figure id=\"attachment_891\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-891\" style=\"width: 1130px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-891 size-full\" title=\"La Noche\" src=\"http:\/\/www.soyounfotoarts.com\/blog\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/nudeSol-copy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1130\" height=\"347\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.soyounfotoarts.com\/blog\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/nudeSol-copy.jpg 1130w, https:\/\/www.soyounfotoarts.com\/blog\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/nudeSol-copy-300x92.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.soyounfotoarts.com\/blog\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/nudeSol-copy-1024x314.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1130px) 100vw, 1130px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-891\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">From the series \u2018La Noche\u2019, Left: Negatives Solarisation (Sabattier effect) , Right: Print Solarisation<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_892\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-892\" style=\"width: 1131px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-892\" title=\"Self, Celestial\" src=\"http:\/\/www.soyounfotoarts.com\/blog\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/selfSol-copy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1131\" height=\"348\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.soyounfotoarts.com\/blog\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/selfSol-copy.jpg 1131w, https:\/\/www.soyounfotoarts.com\/blog\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/selfSol-copy-300x92.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.soyounfotoarts.com\/blog\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/selfSol-copy-1024x315.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1131px) 100vw, 1131px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-892\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">From the image &#8216;Self, Celestial&#8217;, Left: Print Solarisation, Right: Negatives Solarisation (Sabattier effect)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 Emak Bakia! &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;Leave me alone!
