2012

Installation, 21 x 30 x 25 cm.
Materials: sound installation, mixed media, ed 1/ 3

Collection: Collection M HKA, Antwerp / Collection Flemish Community (Inv. no. BK009522).

For her sound installation Unities,  Anna Zvyagintseva has gathered people’s voices at public protests and put them all into a pot to 'stew', as if it was a witchy potion. By doing so, the artist attempted to overcome the fear that arises when she encounters aggressive voices in the political arena.

About M HKA / Mission Statement

The M HKA is a museum for contemporary art, film and visual culture in its widest sense. It is an open place of encounter for art, artists and the public. The M HKA aspires to play a leading role in Flanders and to extend its international profile by building upon Antwerp's avant-garde tradition. The M HKA bridges the relationship between artistic questions and wider societal issues, between the international and the regional, artists and public, tradition and innovation, reflection and presentation. Central here is the museum's collection with its ongoing acquisitions, as well as related areas of management and research.
