Rotterdam-based Australian-Argentian artist Pilar Mata Dupont visits her family’s history, digging into the mysteries of ancestry and matriarchy. Influenced by director Lucrecia Martel, Pilar imagines her extended family members as absent protagonists and Argentina’s complicated and violent history as a backdrop against which to unpack themes of motherhood and trauma, colonial dread and alienation.
