About the artist
Local Foreigner appeared as a reflection of the increasingly hostile and confused relation between ideas of locality and foreignness. It explores the relations between national identities, migration, and the existential crisis facing our society.
Local Foreigner is interested in the potency of life; its tensions, intensity and resonance. Their overarching desire is to transform the way we relate to each other & ourselves, towards less oppressed & violent relationships.
