Amber Ablett: Anthems

In the Anthems project, Amber Ablett has been learning the national anthems of countries that people have asked her if she comes from. The overall project of learning the national anthems seeks to raise the question of the assumed relationship between ethnicity and nationality, our outer appearances and our inner connections, how we see ourselves and how others see us. The exhibition at Lydgalleriet shares recordings and text works from this project within an archival structure, and will be presented as a 12 channel sound sculpture.
