The video montage A WORLD OF OUR OWN weaves together stories of various Cosmo-figures, female explorers of worlds known and unknown, actual and fictional freedom fighters across different times and places, who assemble for a future mission in the world’s largest financial centre. They are linked through time and space through a montage of various elements, such as drawn animation, video footage shot by the artist, and found footage, combined with sound snippets from different sources, interview excerpts, radio transmission, music, written text, again animated. Both elusive and concrete, A WORLD OF OUR OWN addresses current political
struggles and feminist legacies, the past seeping into the present and enabling a different future, one in the here and now, a constant loop, just like the video montage itself forms a continuously playing
sequence.
