11.28withMo

2023

 

11.28withMo (2023) is a film research project submerged in the poignancies of queer desire, public eroticism, and the politics of absence within spaces traditionally defined by secrecy and erasure. In this durational, seemingly single-take piece, the act of waiting becomes both a literal and metaphorical site for negotiation—a space where desire, vulnerability, and the transience of love collide. By capturing a seemingly simple encounter in the dark of night, Logan Wolfe creates an intense intimacy in which time is punctuated by the discomfort of waiting, the surprise of entwinement, and the weight of separation.

​

The film becomes a form of embodied archiving: in the act of waiting and encountering, Logan creates an ephemeral document that resists the constraints of traditional, fixed forms of representation. 11.28withMo does not just challenge linear time but also invites us to rethink queer presence through histories and memory as living, mutable processes that resist traditional forms of documentation. These ephemeral traces—momentary and fragile—are both an act of defiance and an embrace of malleability, challenging the imposition of fixed narratives on queer identity.

​

In its quiet simplicity, 11.28withMo reveals the radical potentials of absence, of waiting, and of subtle gestures. It creates a space where queer love is not simply a refusal of political erasures, but a perseverance of an ongoing resistance—constantly redefining and re-manifesting itself in relation to shifting social, political, and personal landscapes. It is a work that speaks through its silences and duration, provoking the potential of future moments to come, while at the same time attempting to preserve the ephemeral and fugitive traces of an intimate encounter, so much so that they escape.
