Joy Gregory Selects… is a film programme curated by the artist to accompany her exhibition Catching flies with honey. Bringing together works that span documentary, fiction and essay film, Gregory’s selection reflects longstanding concerns in her practice with identity, intimacy, and histories of representation. The programme moves across geographies and generations, from personal observation to collective history. On why she chose these particular films, Gregory reflects:

“They resonate with themes in my own work: home, belonging, representation, and cultural memory. Moving between the personal and the global, the films reflect on family, migration, exile, everyday life, and the overlooked.

What unites them is a shared attentiveness, a commitment to looking and listening. Whether through the intimacy of domestic life or the resonance of sound systems and communal ritual, these films demonstrate the power of observation to connect past and present, memory and place.”
