Emanuelson, MA Sharelly
Sharelly Emanuelson is a filmmaker, visual artist, researcher, and founder of Uniarte (art platform). She carries a BA in audiovisual media and MA in artistic research. For her films and installations between 2010 and 2021 she has been widely recognized with screenings, prizes and grants in local, regional, and international festivals and institutes.
As a part of Islander(s) at the Helm, Sharelly Emanuelson will conduct ethnographic research from a visual-anthropological perspective. Her new body of work will explore how Dutch Caribbean Islanders are adapting to climate challenges and she will seek to study this through the outernational ethic of living rhythmically with the rest of the environment which on the ABC islands is termed “biba dushi”.
