Aline Motta: Water is a Time Machine
Artist in Focus: Aline Motta speaks about her Sharjah Biennial 15 work ‘Water is a Time Machine’ (2023), a multilayered project surrounding her family members and their lives in Rio de Janeiro at the turn of the twentieth century.
The work uses archival material and new footage with spoken poetry to initiate a two-way dialogue between memoir and historical record.
