DIAGRAMMING THE ARCHIVE
Five artists created diagram artworks in response to two sets of archival documents and reconstruct acts that inscribe the subject’s relation to the state: the signing of the Covenant and Declaration documents at Belfast City Hall in 1912 and the reading of the Proclamation document at the General Post Office, Dublin, in 1916.
PARABLES OF EVICTION AND REGENERATION PROCESSES
Collaboration with Elvira Santamaria 2015 – 2016
Artist archive and documentary
Elvira Santamaria about the project:
A live art project regarding violence, mourning and regeneration processes in México and Central America, from my closest context and personal story to a largest context and historical scale. I want to create a corpus of poetic works of regeneration symbols in a video film of public performances and interviews.
