Description
As Deep as I Could Remember, As Far as I Could See is a collection of two poems and two polyphonic stories that explore themes of desire, multiple identities, borders, and hybridity. Through an exchange between the artist and their adolescent alter ego, Vadim, these works are reassembled, multiplied, and merged in this book. The accumulation of experiences and voices reflects a human condition in constant motion, weaving together an universal narrative and the construction of individual identity. The poems are accompanied by an essay from Jesi Khadivi, curator and writer, which clarifies the conceptual strategies and text-sculture framework underlying the artist's practice. First published in 2018, this work showcases Tarik Kiswanson's engagement with a 'poetics of hybridity'.
