About the Work
Spanning from colonial history to the contemporary era, this work revolves around modes of seeing—the surveyor's gaze, the painter's observation, the mirror's reflection, and the kin's watchful eye. These intersecting perspectives weave contrasting histories that borrow from and dispossess one another.
