A Tongue Called Mother

Eva Giolo

16mm scanned to digital file, color, 4:3, stereo, BE, 2019, 18’

A Tongue Called Mother depicts the relationship between language, gestures and affiliation. It slowly captures the actions and words of three generations of women in the same family and children learning to read, meditating on words learnt and forgotten through the body.

With A Tongue Called Mother Eva Giolo won the Cedric Willemen Award 2019 and the Vordemberge Gildewart Award 2020.
