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 as well as visualizing thoughts, ideas and observations through contextual criticism. Highly aware of the environmental impact of her art practice, she weaves her narratives using found footages and shared resources in order as to mitigate her carbon footprint in the process of delivering these videos. Her artivism begins with a self-inquiry, as she negotiates the contextual binary of exisiting in contemporary society with a interest in philosophical insights. 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.
