Gloria Oyarzabal (Spain): Usus Fructus Abusus – La Blanche et la Noire
Jim Casper, editor-in-chief of LensCulture: ‘This rich and complex work attempts to interrogate ethical issues related to colonisation, rights of ownership, the plunder on display in museums, cultural art and artefacts, and stereotypical prejudices and biases. The ongoing project consists of several formal, narrative and discursive layers, and it poses a lot of critical questions that deserve attention. The diptychs and staged images capture your attention immediately, then reveal nuance as you dig in deeper’
