Through different media Olivia Thaleia creates an atmospheric universe that expresses perceptions in a metaphorical and poetic way. She is also interested in the sacred and transitional states between presence and absence.
For her diploma she created an installation, about her relationship with water and her ritual of walking along different water bodies in different places of residence. The heart of this installation is a text that she wrote. This work articulates on a notion of cycles and water as a transitory and universal flow. Through narratives questioning displacement, transition, memory and remembrance, she brings her relationship to her environment and change into dialogue. This work interconnects personal concepts with Christian beliefs and mythological narratives.
