Masha Ryskin
Driven by my experience as an immigrant, my work explores memory, a sense of place and belonging. I take bits and pieces of my surroundings and recontextualize them into imaginary spaces. My work is loosely aligned with other immigrant artists who deal with place, history, and identity.
