Restorative Disembodiment

***

Saoirse Amira Anis is an artist based in Dundee. Saoirse’s creative process is a celebration of the holistic and constantly changing nature of existence, and she takes delight in being able to explore the fascinating and beautiful relationships between materials, memories, and the essential movement which runs through everything. Interested in her personal ancestry, she has been considering the ways in which she is responsible for the continuation of her cultural heritage.

Inspired by the value that she places on displaying empathy, Saoirse’s work also investigates personal therapeutic processes, and how this relates to the ways we share our vulnerabilities with others. She has been considering the potential that lies in caring for ourselves and others, and the extent to which this nurturing can benefit us both personally and politically.
