In her current exhibition at Bildmuseet, Larissa Sansour takes us to a dystopic future where the Earth has undergone an ecological collapse. There, the human clone Alia addresses the trauma, life goals and dreams of previous generations. What stories do we take over from these? How are our lives shaped by this heirloom?
Larissa Sansour (b. 1973 in East Jerusalem) is a Danish-Palestinian artist and director based in London, educated in Copenhagen, London and New York. She works across film, photography, installation and sculpture, and her works often take their starting point in science fiction worlds, dealing with both political and universal human issues of identity and belonging.
