INTERVIEWS FROM MIAMI: A DICTIONARY

from A to Y

Iliyana Kancheva (BG)

While in Miami I recorded four interviews with Venezuelan artists. I identified keywords which appear in the recordings. Through automated software I extracted every phrase where a keyword is present, tearing it out of its original context. In this way, their personal stories become fractured in search of potential new meanings contained in the individual phrases. The work transforms a very personal, private, and subjective story into the highly formal, objective, and impersonal body of the dictionary.
