Pera Film's annual I'm Here! film program, initiated in observance of World AIDS Day, this year hosts the screenings of the video collection Everyone I Know is Sick, curated by the contemporary art organization Visual AIDS.
Everyone I Know is Sick presents a selection of five videos by artists working around the world who make connections between HIV and other forms of illness and disability. Inspired by a statement in Cyrée Jarelle Johnson's book “Black Futures”, Everyone I Know Is Sick examines how our society excludes disabled and sick people through a false health-disease dichotomy. The program inviting us to understand disability as a shared experience rather than an exception to the norm highlights a range of experiences spanning HIV, COVID, mental health, and aging.
This program’s screenings are free admission. Drop in, no reservations. As per legal regulations, all our screenings are restricted to persons over 18 years of age, unless stated otherwise.

The exhibition Wanderer on the Sea of Light presents Ziem as an artist who left his mark on 19th century painting and who is mostly known for his paintings of Istanbul and Venice, where the city and the sea are intertwined.
Frida Kahlo was born on July 6, 1907 in Coyoacán, Mexico. Exactly 47 years from now, before she died in the same city and her beloved Mexico, many things would happen; she’d meet Diego Rivera, become a world-renowned artist, and allow many of her fans to dress like her on Halloween.
Knowledge of plants and the practice of healing are closely entwined. The toxic or hallucinogenic nature of some roots, and the dangers associated with picking them, conferred a mythical or magical character and power.
