Allison Henriquez+
Allison Henriquez is an Aruban-American video and sound artist based in Rotterdam. Her practice thematically draws from psychoanalysis, mysticism and neuroscience and builds an aesthetic vocabulary out of banal scenes, found material and memes. Playing with memory
patterns and dream states, her use of sound amplifies everyday oddities into a hermetical status. Her work brings into poetic conversation the human ability to collect and recall memories throughout various layers of consciousness, with contemporary visual
obsessions and affective states.
‘Always
Remember The Little Things, Especially When They Sparkle’ is a sound/video installation that explores the unusual debris of mental activity one finds while daydreaming. In this case, sounds suggest a scenario that readily replaces a daydream with fantasizing.
A place where poppy laced visions invite intimate scrutiny, clouding, instead of clearing, perception. When sounds reverberate in the mind during waking hours, what images appear? What kinds of feelings arise?
