Alejandra Ugarte is a transdisciplinary artist who reflects on her maternit(ies), the hierarchical power relations established by this bond, public/private space, and education as imposture, taking everyday elements in her life and that of her daughter’s that represent – and question – these social institutions.
Maternit(ies) of Exchange
This action proposes a symbolic exchange through the dispossession of clothing and toys belonging to my daughter; objects-archives that represent affective, cultural and cross-border experiences that create ties between my maternit(ies), migration and the exclusion of the margins of power.
