ARDEA VALLEY

Excerpt from Andrea's work: "Memories - Voices - Fractions, a mixed-material embodying phenomenon of liminal space composed by the entities of the body, the mind, and the consciousness.

Stems from Barad (2007), ‘the nature of the relationship between discursive practices and material phenomena; an accounting of “nonhuman” as well as “human” forms of agency’ (p. 66), the three ‘nonhuman’ entities that thrive in the in-between are not just the re-presentation or visual interpretation of self (‘human’).

They are the coexistence of the independently articulate entities and the fluidly intertwined wholeness, and they perceive incidents of life variously according to how they intra-act with the realities.

The body remembers and carries both the visible and invisible marks of memories and traumas; the mind speaks whether she is heard or not; the consciousness is protected by the former two entities and cannot help being absent and broken from time to time. Together and separately, they express how trauma is processed delicately and poetically."
