Exposition

Dear _____, Please Imagine my Birthday (2019)

Harold Hejazi

About this exposition

How much of our sense of identity is filtered through social memory—the memory of others and our own? This is a reflection on a performative birthday which attempted to transplant the artist’s community from Victoria, Canada to Helsinki, Finland. Through the medium of larp, the performance explored the ways in which the self is socially produced and sustained through interaction, memory and community. In so doing, the larp offered a self-portrait in which the story of a self was produced collectively.
