  • “They told us you’ll conquer when you surrender.
    We surrendered and found ashes.
    They told us you’ll conquer when you love.
    We loved and found ashes.
    They told us you’ll conquer when you abandon your life.
    We abandoned our life and found ashes.
    We found ashes. It remains to recuperate our life, now that we’ve nothing left.”

    Haunted by the poetic verse of Georges Seféris, the artists film headless and bodiless ancient statues, mutilated heroines and heroes stripped of their singularity. Where is My Mind? questions the notions of identity and individual liberties as we become increasingly ensnared by data and algorithms under the guise of security, protection, and ideologies that jeopardize our propensity to dream freely, politically, and poetically.
