For whose eyes I have, the three family members draw on archival and personal histories of their maternal and paternal roots in Ukraine, Romania, and the United States. Through their respective disciplines and family traditions of photography, video, dance, music, theater, poetry, and narrative storytelling, they create an immersive installation that explores migration and travel, heritage and identity, and the power and the weight of what is passed down to us by our forebears."
Murmurs was made possible, in part, by a 2022-23 Durham Arts Council Emerging Artists Grant.
