This presentation by Jamie Lorimer from King's College London explores the nuanced ways elephants move through both physical spaces and emotional landscapes. It delves into the importance of affect, emotion, and the mobile body in shaping perception and representation. Key themes include nonhuman charisma and its ecological, aesthetic, and corporeal implications. Through moving imagery, particularly in films about elephants, we analyze the interplay of sentimentality and disconcertion, raising important questions about our relationship with these majestic animals.
