Connecting Worlds brings together
the work of six contemporary, emerging artists
whose work engages with ideas of community
and the individual's place within it.
Through painting, drawing, photography
and installation, the exhibition explores
a diversity of cultures from a global perspective.
The works of paula roush engage notions of history, authorship and collective memory, related in particular, to the Portuguese dictatorship era.
Her Found Photo Foundation includes personal snapshots of government officials, family life and bureaucratic worker identity cards that unearth
a period of collective amnesia and censorship
that lasted until 1974.
