Over a long trajectory, that eventually led me to project-based work using installation and digital media to visualize social practice and engage audiences for change.
For example, in an earlier project, I presented stories of immigration with real-time visualization of participant answers between two groups in a gentrifying neighborhood. Later, in Imaginary Country, I invited comparisons between the history and experiences of the Berlin Wall and the US Border Wall using three connected installation sites in Berlin, Mexico, and the US.
By 2012, working with online and f2f participation became increasingly problematic, prompting me to work more directly in communities and for longer periods. I also started collaborating with people in the social sciences, working within a framework of qualitative research, working in the qualitative research network of the European Sociological Association.
In 2013, I began examining issues of hegemony and control of smaller countries in eastern and southern Europe. The EU uses branding strategies to compete with traditional nationalistic symbols. Social Capital is an ongoing project that introduces themes such as history, future, immigration, etc.using animations. Begun in 2013-2014 to build dialogue and research in Eastern European communities. It investigates how people feel about their own history and practices, it touches on larger issues of progressive ideas in competition with a new sense of parochialism. Since 2013, the region has become more unstable. I also began a new effort in China in 2019-2020. I will be showing new work in Singapore in March of 2025.
