ARTIST STATEMENT
Invisibility: Existing on the Periphery — this is what it is to live un-interpellated by the ideology of the hour. You have not been drafted into the mainstream discourse, the discourse has not succeeded in conscripting you. In your community they even shudder to speak lest they should be made vulnerable. Art can be a means of making this seen to those who will see. In particular, the self portrait is needed because it tries to also be a portrait of the community, hinting at the real zone of interest.
