Monya Riachi is a multidisciplinary artist with a material and research driven practice. Her work engages with matter as a site of narrative and archive, through context- specific/responsive methodologies and formats. Her practice explores themes around the politics of land; the entanglement of historical geographies; relationship to time within chrono capitalism; and the agential realism of matter; amidst a broader meditation on universal ecological transformation. Her work is realised through sculpture, installation, moving image, sound, writing and performance, and engages creative specialists through its collaborative process of making, from musicians, writers, geologists, materials scientists and craftspeople.
For 3oubour, Monya will continue her work with sculpture and ecological materials by experimenting with clay, a physical manifestation of land politics and geological time, processes and pigmenting.
