Still from 'I Didn't See You There'

With its lingering camerawork and spontaneous dialogues, Reid Davenport's 'I Didn't See You There' offers a raw and straightforward portrayal of everyday life seen from the perspective of a wheelchair user: the mental frustrations, physical obstacles and social interactions. But Davenport's mission is not simply to map the built environment, which is so little thought of with his body in mind. It is also an aesthetic study of the wheelchair's ability to challenge the formal cinematic codes that are linked to the "normal body"; an attempt to rethink the art of film from a different corporeality.

The film is introduced by the renowned American architecture theorist David Gissen; it is the second chapter in the film series 'Disabled Lives, Disabling Forms', which examines the intersection between disability, film and architecture.

'Disabled Lives, Disabling Forms' Film Program

A two-day program of experimental documentary films – all created by filmmakers, representing their experiences of impairment. In addition to documenting disability at home and within urban spaces, these works also disable the aesthetic character of film by challenging the conventional relationships between imagery, sound, and point of view in an effort to capture the sentiment of impairment.
