This artistic and curatorial proposal brings together a set of works that engage with questions of diasporic memory and cultural identity. Memory appears here as intergenerational, blurred, and discontinuous. In my work, the logic of stratification - of layers, renders identity as superimposition: a complex assemblage of dust and roots that, by turns, anchor and drift.
I am drawn to natural processes of erosion that echo the mechanisms of evolution and transformation at work within diasporic cultures. What occupies my thinking, above all, is the complexity and ambiguity inherent in mixed identities. It is this that I attempt to render here: a way of making sense of layers and superimpositions, but also of small erosions, of fragilities.
