Description:

Icons, Textures, Words is a single-channel video by Jenny Marketou developed while in residence at Western Front. The work layers video footage taken in the Negev Desert, Israel with text and voice over narration that ruminates on identity and the relationship between the self and that which is outside the self.

Video documentation is available upon request.

Western Front is a non-profit artist-run centre in Vancouver.

We acknowledge the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and səl̓ílwətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations as traditional owners of the land upon which Western Front stands.
