ALTERNATE REALITY
(SANTA PAULA, EL CAFETAL, CAURIMARE, CARACAS) (2019-2020)



Alternate Reality (Santa Paula, El Cafetal, Caurimare, Caracas) is a video collage in which I utilize created 3D drawings, and found Google satellite photos, Google user 360º images, and YouTube videos to attempt to recreate the neighbourhoods I grew up around in Caracas. It also reflects on the banning of the Google Streetview function in Venezuela, creating a gap in our digital-space –one potential way I would have been able to “travel back”. What do these spaces look like in my current memory and how can I fill in the gaps with the use of found footage?

Created partially during my time at Residencia Corazón in La Plata, Argentina in March 2019.
