Fragments of An Empire with Litsa Kiousi, 2021

Part of An Empire, an ongoing research project from Richard Hancock and Litsa Kiousi. It is an exploration of the histories, atrocities, presents and futures of empire building. Through a collaborative dialogue, the artists map the tide of European history, and grapple with the complexity of existence in a modern empire. It is an urgent enquiry into the future of a world balancing on a dangerous brink of repetition.

Installation with inkjet print, burned white flag bunting rope, and rotten wood (including photograph by Mayra Wallraff). Dimensions variable.
