Overview
A visual and sonic elegy, Ex-Voto interweaves the artist’s series of political votive paintings with the global events and personal affairs connected to them in an intricate, nuanced, poetic, and humorous way. Composed of historical archives and the artist’s own footage, the film explores disaster, survival, and gratitude—themes at the heart of the ex-voto tradition—as a means to confront our chaotic times. Like the artist’s pictorial works, the film expresses the way globalized history incarnates itself in our existences, depicting the tension between the simplicity and fragility of everyday life and the inexorability of the historical and political forces that underlie it.
