Artist Statement
Through research-based processes and using digital strategies, I create still and moving images, installations, and web-based works. These investigate notions of land imaginaries, unmappable spaces, utopias, and techno-colonialism. I use timestamps, geolocation points, satellite imagery, antique maps, and literature as raw materials for minimal pieces that reflect on the human experience of living within global scale infrastructures and colossal amounts of data. As a third-generation holocaust survivor, my intergenerational trauma inspires my practice. There is a sense of incompleteness and illegibility in my work. It contrasts the sense of being lost or disconnected in a hyper mapped and connected world.
