A powerful story of paleness, blending in and standing out.
A powerful story of paleness, blending in and standing out.
“I was born on the day the Pope came to Coventry, my
home town. In my family this unexpected appearance was perceived as a blessing.
A sublime gift.”
Influenced by her experience as a person with
albinism, Jo Bannon uses blinding light, proximity, movement and sound to
create an extraordinary visual poem.
Alba
explores the stories we tell of ourselves and the stories told about us, the
myths we inherit and the ones we embody, the identities we cannot shake off and
so instead perform.
