Susan Hiller's paraconceptualism.

Kokoli, Alexandra M.

Abstract

Exploring the margins of representability, pushing beyond the limits and limitations of retinality, lending a voice to the dead or incorporating oral accounts of anonymous strangers, all conjure the ghostly quality that is typical of both the subject matter and the means and materials of Hiller’s art. Her oeuvre is engaged in an on-going dialogue with psychoanalysis, whose archaeological investigations into the unconscious it mimics in its attempt to unearth censored strata of cultural signification.
