Posted · Add Comment

The mixed-media installation Insurgent Flows. reflects on death and history after World War II. The wars of the present and recent past have entirely changed geopolitical relations. The capitalist imperial powers of the United States and its NATO allies, along with various regional powers, have destroyed Africa (Libya), the Middle East (Iraq), and Afghanistan with colonial appetites. Social and political space is disintegrating under the pressure of global capitalism. The recent “crises” fuel the perpetuation of the history of racism, antisemitism, Islamophobia, sexism, and homo- and transphobia. They lead to a situation characterized by cruel erasure, displacement, discrimination, humiliation, and the denial of the rights of racialized people, migrant people, refugees, LGBTQI+ people, sex workers, and many others.
