Gina’s narrative based practice resides on discourse that is part criticism and part activism. She considers her practice as a simulacrum- of a kind of Artivism. At times philosophical, other times straight talking, she addresses social, political, environmental stalemate of our contemporary society through reframing events, deconstruction and translation in order to recondition our immediate responses in order to reexamine through relatable angles with a critical perspective. Highly aware of the environmental impact of art practice, she creates with found footages and includes community resources to render her subjects. Her artivism engages self, as she mitigate her attendance in contemporary society. Gina graduated with a Masters of Art (critical practice) at Royal College of Arts U.K. She is currently based in Singapore after having lived in France, U.K and Portugal over 12 years.
