Monoprint
Media Dimensions: 34 x 55.5 cm
Image Dimensions: 15.7 x 41 cm
Unique Work
Framed only
Iliana Ortega-Alcázar (Mexico City, born 1976) is completing the MA Fine Art at Middlesex University. She works across a variety of media including printmaking and digital media, often bringing them together in the creation of both 2D and 3D installation pieces. Iliana’s practice deals with contemporary social and political issues: key concerns relate to the politics and gendered aspects of home-making, and issues relating to migration, home and belonging. Iliana approaches her subject matter through a personal lens, and turns to abstraction with the aim of creating work that allows for multiple meanings and interpretations. Her monoprint forms part of a series entitled 'Claims of Belonging'. These prints are inspired in imagery of weathered graffities that were once bold. They refer to the agency that exists behind claims of belonging in the context of migration, as well as the fragility and contingency of such claims.
