******** Feelin Kem , this cd is a classic
Ingrid with her son
Didn't I tell y'all that she was fierce
Interesting!
Video Doc'
One of her audio-video project
The use of the body in her workWOW is the word I'm left with after learning more about this Kenyan photographer...quite interesting body of work I have to say. She was born in Kenya, of a German mama & a Kenyan father, she grew up in her daddy's land before moving to her mother's country.
She started exposing her work at the age of 23, her themes center around racism, discrimination, her anger in front of violence, her mixed heritage...
She uses her own body to give her messages, various body parts , abstract images....
She expresses the difficulties that come from being of mixed heritage, the racism that women like her face in Europe.
Her work includes video documentaries, photographs, sound installations...
it's funny but the image I'm left after seeing her work is of 1 rebel woman..it's loud but at the same time to me feels like a silent movie..hun..I don't know just my impression...
