| Synopsis: |
From the beginning of the 60s, Mary Kelly's work has surpassed the muddle of language and its cultural and psychological impacts. Her narrative installations question traditional views of daily life. The project "The Ballad of Kastriot Rexhepi" was created in 1999 after reading a piece of news published in a "Los Angeles Daily" newspaper, a report relating the story of Kastriot, an Albanian boy whose mother was left for dead during the Kosovo war and who was rescued by the Serbians. Mary Kelly invented this ballad to portray the individual traumatic consequences of the war, by means of a freize formed by panels made of compressed lint. The artist investigates the effects of the war, how it is shown by the media and its psychological influences in real life. This book not only reflects on the installation, but also gathers a selection of important texts by the artist herself on her whole body of work. |
