An episode of Empire Lines podcast in which Jelena Sofronijevic interviews Griselda Pollock about Medium and Memory which Griselda curated for HackelBury's recent exhibition
Focusing predominantly on women artists, Medium and Memory staged four conversations pairing eight artists from different countries, generations, ethnicities, and personal histories who all share a deep engagement with the materiality of their media—painting drawing, moving image, photography and photo-collage—while focussing on memory—personal, historical, cultural, suppressed, discovered, restored.
Empire Lines podcast uncovers the unexpected, often two-way, flows of empires through art, and historicity. Jelena says about her practice, "I use audio, print, and narrative storytelling to deconstruct seemingly ‘simple’ sociopolitical issues, and platform alternative, marginalised perspectives."
