Kielder, 2015-2016
Initiated by Newcastle University’s Fine Art Department and The Kielder Partnership, the ambitious yearlong project set out with the aim of exploring the opportunities of the unique environment of Kielder Forest for visual art. The project culminated in the creation of a group of semi-temporary works created by staff and students, sited in the forest.
Hatton Gallery, Newcastle, 2016
Performance and installation collaborative project with Vena Naskrecka, “Re-transform” is a result of our mutual interest in memory, attachment, childhood trauma, and human body.
A layering of references alluding to Romanian cultural heritage and my own memories, the immersive installation is a journey out of time, through memory. But it is a memory re-imagined, re-remembered, and re-manufactured. It is about past traditions which have become increasingly alien, but not forgotten.
Reactivating Central Poznan, Poznan, Poland, Sept 2015 Collaborative video work with artist Vena Naskrecka, created during our residency in the city of Poznan, as part of the conference ‘Paradox’, inspired by the city’s history and contradictory changes.
