THREE MOMENTS / THE CARIBBEAN
THE CARIBBEAN PAVILION AT THE LIVERPOOL BIENNIAL
Heino Schmid
(Bahamas, *1976)
“The context of much of my work is concerned with narrative and the reconsideration of personal stories in the public forum. Using a variety of media such as video, drawing, installation and photography, I investigate the often simple, sometimes irrelevant encounters and collisions between people and their environments.
Although I strive for universal metaphors, I approach each body of work in a very personal way. Using self-referential experiences as an avenue to illuminating collective experiences I hope to reveal the subtle social dramas that inform our lives and ultimately bring those realities to the forefront for discussion.”
