Description | ‘Unearthing the Bankers Bones’ is a project with multiple components. Its central element is a three-channel video installation with a narration that revisits key science fiction texts to reference contemporary issues and dialogues around migration, climate change and capitalism. It alludes to these issues through a fictional set of encounters between a shape-shifting ‘Trickster/Archivist’ figure and the ‘Banker’ of the title, depositing the Banker’s excavated ‘remains’ in a series of museum vitrines displayed in the gallery space under the title ‘The Bankers Books’. |
