Sobremesa /// Upon The Table///
>This is my current project: an attempt to bring together many different elements of my practice as a methodology to explore the idea of 'dwelling' within the context of motherhood and the Anthropocene. Many of these images are of works in progress; maquettes, video stills, prints that will be transformed into structures, etc, all originating from my kitchen dining table. 'Sobremesa' (upon or about the table) is a Spanish term used for describing what happens after a meal, such as relaxing and talking with friends and family. The table is the locus for my life as an artist and mother, a place to dwell and be present, or to gather memories and imagine futures. It is an object that is being constantly eroded and yet it generates ideas and facilitates growth.
