Aim & Scope
The aim of Meshes is to be part of the global conversation about narratives that explore diversity in its polyvisual representations in film, moving image, and visual culture; to discover and promote women's film history; and to create a proliferation of conversations around film and moving image narrative, structure, and process. Meshes will encourage and pursue new writing on diversity in film and contemporary visual culture, contextualise hidden narratives that have impacted visual culture, and be open to new and challenging ideas on film, moving image, and visual culture. Meshes will be released over three issues in 2018.
