International touring Art Exhibition showing in Britain, Argentina, Spain and Cuba Marty has been invited by the Cultural Projects for National Antarctic Affairs Argentine Chancellery to make and record a giant, complex, non-toxic print image in the snow and ice, all based on a photographic memory. The project, which is inspired by Marty’s recent video art work Upside down world, proposes to locate the creative process in a place of flux and movement as a visual memory translated into marks in space and time. In the same way as memory is fleeting, the work aims by its construct to be a metaphor in time and space. Artists residency February/March 2011 on Marambio and Esperanza Antarctica bases.
