FAI & Mixed Museum 2022 Artist in Residence Project

As the Artist in Residence For Folk Alliance International and The Mixed Museum, I was asked to explore my family story and make a multi-media presentation. After six month of digging deep and facing our family secrets, I produced an emotional and intriguing story, heavily edited to fill a 7 minute video presentation, with live music on the viola.

Trigger warning: This video deals with issues of racism, domestic violence and Childrens homes, but also hope and self-validation.
