- Locatie: Het HEM / De Dood, Zaandam
- Sour Counterfeits is a mobile forgery lab, where fruit leather documents are produced. In this multiphase project, Armenian women's generational knowledge of fruit leather making is transformed into a mnemonic device for cultural preservation. “Sour Counterfeits” pulls from a larger collective memory, serving as a vessel through which deracinated testimonials of trans-generational trauma circulate beyond territory, language and citizenship.

Dear Mother: Fluid Mechanism of Belonging
Tentoonstelling / presentatie
-
29-10-2020 t/m 01-11-2020
- Locatie: Het HEM / De Dood, Zaandam
- Taking the form of a passport, this meta-autobiographical memoir, is an internalised investigation of the concept of collective trauma and motherhood. How can we allow future generations to devictimise the transnational identity and to create a new, fluid mechanism of belonging? How does maternal care as a mnemonic device affect a child’s identity formation?

- The work of the mother is historically kept out of the public sphere, but that doesn’t mean that the Mother[hood] is only as large as her house. What a mother makes becomes economy, what a mother teaches becomes knowledge and what a mother touches becomes society.
