| IDENTITIES (2007) |
|---|
Digital constructions of 51 x 35 cm each These digital collages are informed by my ongoing displacement and residency in several countries, and incorporate old passport and ID photographs along with the text of a Catholic litany I chanted as a child. Objects in the Identities works serve as metaphors for the occupations I had in various cities and countries, such as music student, seamstress, nanny, secretary, art student, housewife, and finally artist. These iconic visual references are underpinned by liturgical text in reference to the continued observance of Catholicism in my youth, the one constant I experienced in the various countries and cultures in which I lived. |
