Unit #1

“Unit #1 is based on a collection of photographs of empty vessels existing in disused domestic spaces. Photographic prints on OHP films absorb and reflect lights are layered with engraved personal diary notes and left to dry onto a somewhat familiar kitchen like unit. Trying to make sense of how lives are lived and expressed in the accumulations of materials and possessions.”

Anna Gonzalez Noguchi (b. 1992) is UK born, Spanish and Japanese artist working in Athens, Greece. Her practise is informed by her cross-cultural heritage — removing, relocating and reconstructing objects in different geographic territories. She renegotiates memory and investigates our capacity to anchor experience in tangible forms. Hand-crafted objects, industrially finished surfaces, prosaic artefacts and images are layered, and through this a shift in meaning and purpose is acquired. Seeking to challenge and refine the combination of industrial, hand-made and pre-existing objects towards articulating different states of remembering.
