Geography of Belonging
My artistic production has been focusing on the politics of space. The works look at interior and exterior spaces exploring the relationship between space, memory, and history, and the notion of the trace. The Geography of Belonging extends these investigations looking into the spaces in-between the spaces.
I am interested in looking at ambiguously defined intersections that wrestle with the relationships between belonging and estrangement, gain and lose, life and death, hybridity and rootedness, and history and mythology. The imagery and materials used are generated by historical, personal, and current day events, with the aim to recontextualize, rethink or reimagine common dualities - the sense of belonging.
