"This is an incredibly ambitious venture and I've definitely been put in a position to extend my practice in ways that I would never have thought possible. I think that is at the centre of this Fellowship. It is such a beautiful and delicate balance to be playing in as an artist."

Looking Backwards and Forwards: an interview with Logan Dandridge
"The notion of lineage is so visceral in my imagination and in my awareness of myself. I know I’m not the man that I see in the photograph but that I carry something of that man inside of me. In the obvious ways it’s my hair my eyes my height my expressions. And maybe it is also this unique plurality of history pain faith and pride. To me inheritance isn’t just genetic it’s something more."

Antiphony
Antiphony is an experimental film and work-in-progress by Logan Dandridge.
It reveals some of the questions that were driving Logan's engagement with physics during the Fellowship, notably around ideas of spirituality, science fiction, non-linear time, Blackness and his own familial bonds.
