ANA ČVOROVIĆ : Borders Unfold

28 Sep-26 Oct 2019

Overview

'Borders Unfold' presents the latest expression of Ana Cvorovic's ongoing enquiry on migration and displacement. As part of her Arts Council England funded project with the same title, Borders Unfold is the culmination of a yearlong exploration of the complex psychological effects of geographic dislocation, particularly within communities from former Yugoslavia displaced during the civil war of the nineties. Aiming to create a link between her own experience of displacement and that of others, the artist pursued a research residency in Utica, New York, the city with the largest rate of refugees per capita in the US, in the Summer of 2018. Working with the local community on interviews, workshops and sound recordings, she now returns to sculpture to unfold her own interpretation of this investigation.
