Monuments of A Fictitious Past

Part of Survival Kit: Measures at Latvian Centre for Contemporary Art, Riga

A multimedia installation exploring alternative histories where hip-hop's individualism merges with collective labour movements. Through transformed spray cans and paint particles, the work questions how outdated technologies and forgotten subcultures might offer new perspectives on social change. The installation examines the potential of reimagining past narratives to shape future possibilities, challenging statistical predictions and algorithmic image production. Music in collaboartion with Diana Lelis.

The project is presented as part of the 15th edition of LCCA's Survival Kit festival, curated by Jussi Koitela. September 6 - October 6, 2024. Supported by the Danish Arts Foundation.
