Unsettled: Transcultural Experiences
鈥淯nsettled: Transcultural Experiences鈥� brings together a multimedia artwork installation from personal narratives of 6 IBPOC female artists. Examining the effects of colonialism on diasporic and transcultural bodies, the exhibition explores the concept of eternal displacement, family kinship, and the idea of homeland through global identity constructs and memory. Bound by ideas of digital kinship and a shared feeling of floating through colonial landscapes, these artists delve into notions of unsettledness through a multimedia body of works.
In excavating the concepts of family roots, and examining their sense of ambivalence in belonging, the exhibition opens up the concept of home. Here, home exists not as a state of tangible space, but as a fleeting idea of an unattainable space: a crafted place where conversations, safety, and be/longing can occur within the stillness of the sterile white gallery. In doing so, this exhibition simultaneously questions its own purpose and intentions in housing these unsettled, transcultural, experiences.
