The Wound and the Knife (Notes for a Film About García Wehbi) (2019)

"The Wound and the Knife" is a documentary, a work of fiction, and an essay all in one. It documents the creative process of artist Emilio García Wehbi over the past five years, interwoven with fictional scenes that respond to his art and explore ideas about the body. The film's structure mirrors the fragmented nature of Wehbi’s work, focusing on pieces and the bodies within them. Deliberately disjointed and puzzle-like, "The Wound and the Knife" aims to embrace incompleteness, presenting itself not as a finished product but as a collection of notes from the artist's process.
