Ruth Patir: Performing Artist in New York

About Ruth Patir

(M)otherland is a new video installation by Ruth Patir that brings together ancient archaeology and advanced image technologies. Shifting between first-person storytelling and the experiences shared by many, (M)otherland reflects on womanhood and the burdens of the female body. Patir's work transpires on the line between personal life experiences and the ways in which they are shaped by social constructs, including national ones.
