A collaborative video and performance work using Melania Trump as a lens to examine foreignness and assimilation.
In association with: Magic Me, Cardboard Citizens & Clean Break
The project uses Melania Trump as a lens to examine foreignness and assimilation. The artists explore their relationship to being foreign through collaborative video and performance work with participants. Key questions guiding the work: What are the ways a foreign woman can assimilate and make herself more welcome? How is this open to some foreigners and not others? When does the question of 'Where are you from?' feel like an attack?
