In Flux Traveling Exhibition
Throughout human history people have moved – migrating, immigrating, emigrating, relocating, and resettling. With the language of the mark, we examine this process, this sense of self in flux. We develop autobiographies of heritage—a process rather than a static state, where we imagine ourselves through traditions, stories, and collective memory. The processes, rhythms, and actions of our making bears witness to our physical and mental movements. As personal histories and identities interconnect, converge, and diverge we reinvent and re-narrate imagined stories and hidden histories, and speculate on the possibilities of the past and of our future.
