This video is part of a series of experimental videos, product of my interaction with women after their incarceration. They are part of a work done during more than five years of follow-up. For privacy reasons I do not give more details and of that body of work, I have only decided to publish this video because I consider that it shows a layer of my work little shown by myself.
This is my first approach to a more complex project which is to bring my work to life on different platforms and use more complex languages. Incorporating relative movement into my 2D works and adding sound to them expands their power, I think. This subseries that I have called "The little house" always citing dollhouses as an analogy to the power that conditions and dominates our behaviors and how we perform or feel in our lives, is part of the series the Pink Room that encompasses various techniques on paper and on canvas. Enjoy!

Organized by the 2019/20 SHIFT Residents with guest curator Maya Suess On View: November 18, 2020 – January 9, 2021 Artists: Hernease Davis, Asha Ganpat, Guido Garaycochea, Joy Garnett, Gi (Ginny) Huo, Jordan Lord, Shona Masarin-Hurst, and Monika Wuhrer Putting the spectator in a space that speaks of power, heteronormativity, dissonance, disidentification, disobedience, and identity. This is the recreation of an interior space loaded with symbols in itself. The eleven works shown in this space have been elaborated during the Shift Residency experience, a great opportunity for which I am not only honored but very grateful to have shared with talented artists.
