TEN SLOTTE 5 is an audio-visual festival in Antwerp founded by production platform Escautville. The fifth edition is realized in collaboration with Out of Sight, The Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp and De Cinema.

ANCIENT WORLDS is a duo exhibition by Lala Raščić and Andrew Scott Ross. The exhibition looks at artefacts and stories from the past that have been preserved and explores potentially new meanings and knowledge derived from residues of bygone times. It considers political implications of their use and display today, offering a different perspective on their reading, challenging patriarchal and Eurocentric positions.A look at the construction of narratives and neo-myths, and their uncontrollable and unbridled distribution seems awfully relevant in an era of fake news and post truth.

ANCIENT WORLDS is part of TEN SLOTTE 5.
