Place, Community, and Ephemerality: Exploring Artist Identity within Global and Local Contexts
South Korea, Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, Greece, Japan
I will explore artist identity within two contexts: the global and the local. In conversation with international creatives whose work engages with the ephemeral, who create spaces of encounter, and foster collaboration, I will explore the visual practices and theoretical underpinnings of how artists consider location in a global contemporary. Engaging with both independent artists and collectives as well as large-scale international art venues I will investigate how art, as a communicative medium, transcends place.
