For this week's PAUSE, a mid-week moment to spend time with an artist's work in full, we revisit Untitled by American artist and cinematographer Bradford Young (When They See Us, Solo: A Star Wars Story, Arrival, Selma).
This screening is accompanied by a short live introduction by Bradford. The film, originally commissioned for Film4 Summer Screen 2019, is a memorial to slain rapper Nipsey Hussle and a meditation on the cathartic nature of collective mourning in the African diaspora.
