Artist’s Statement
He provides the following information on his exhibition:
“There are decades where nothing happens, and there are weeks when decades happen.
Living in times of runaway change, my body of work considers the slippage between images of celebration and war, and imagination and violence as mediated through racialized bodies and objects.
Uncertainty makes way for transformations. Repurposing and going beyond the confines of a racialized aesthetic, my work hopes to propose and contribute to imagining different modes of relation for imagining our joint future.”
Artist’s Statement in Spanish
“Hay décadas en las que nada ocurre, y semanas en las que ocurren décadas.
Viviendo en tiempos de cambio descontrolado, mi obra considera la transición entre imágenes de celebración y guerra, y de imaginación y violencia, mediadas por cuerpos y objetos racializados.
La incertidumbre da paso a transformaciones. Reutilizando y trascendiendo los límites de una estética racializada, mi obra busca proponer y contribuir a imaginar diferentes modos de relación para imaginar nuestro futuro conjunto. Viva Palestina.”
