HEALING GROUND is an experimental animated documentary that interrogates the colonial legacies embedded in archives through the lens of Black land stewards. Visually combining live-action footage, archival material, and custom AI-generated animation, the film reimagines archives as dynamic, living systems. Using a custom Generative Adversarial Network (GAN), HEALING GROUND creates evolving digital motifs centered on Afrocentric perspectives, challenging the exclusion of Black voices from AI and algorithmic technologies. These motifs, a visual metaphor for time travel, weave throughout the film, connecting past, present, and future, and highlighting the enduring relationship between Black communities and the land. Through this innovative blending of technology and documentary filmmaking, HEALING GROUND seeks to deconstruct static historical narratives, preserving and amplifying the stories of Black farmers in new and groundbreaking ways.
