Abstract
For the past eight years, I have been engaged in “con.Text,” a body of work that examines historic events in the context of the current social and political climate and raises awareness of past abuses and injustices by a government against a targeted minority group.
I research and reference text from government documents, declarations, and other forms of institutional communication, and use these words as my mark to render each person with the very words that affects them. Using words as building blocks in the formation of the image does not define the subject by that language; instead, the words are blended together and blurred, transforming from labels into broader gestures that help define a new visual language of strength and beauty.
