Retrospective to the I
2023, Multimodal, Textile, Painting, Installation, Poetry-Prose
Engaging in the I through a combination of journal entries, poetic writing, discussions of materiality, subjectivity and ontology, letters, short stories, memories, and art pieces. I situate myself in this great, complex world. In the end, I try to frame the I through the lens of care-related ontology, taking a leaf from post-humanistic and postcolonial feminism AND poetry. We must care if we are to be and become. The Retrospecitve functioned both as a thesis and as an exhibition. The question asked here is “Who gets to be the I?”
