videoart collection

The videoart collection encompasses 7 video works traversing issues of intersectionality, identity construction and post-memory. Several of these have been exhibited individually and as a series across countries, cultures and contexts as an exploration of shifting poetics. Drawing on a family history of migration across three continents in four generations against a backdrop of dwindling colonial empire, this series forms an examination of identity and environment spanning North America, the Caribbean and South Asia. The interest was not only how the work is received differently in different places, but also as abstract elements disassembled and recompiled — where meaning is embraced, grasped, dissolved or rejected amid a contemporary interweaving of cultural-contextual interpretation.
