(un)packing - art installation

Funded by Aalborg University CREATE and Novo Nordisk Foundation in the framework of the Un-disciplinary symposium and exhibition, together with my collective (Aashruti Tripathy, Claudix Vanesix, Hafsa Khan), I created (un)packing. It is a video/projection-mapping installation and a reflection of one’s journey as a transient experience of migration, settling and habitation. The aim is to examine the emotional and material implications of one's chronic movement manifested through various forms of mental longing (Heimweh and Fernweh) in a fast-paced, globalised and heavily mediated social environment. The project features a suitcase and a white mattress in an empty room, as though a newly inhabited space, utilisng projection mapping and GANs to layer the film onto the space. Aalborg, Denmark, 2023.
