Description
Hoeckele is a multimedia artist working in performance art, photography, found objects, and video art. Her photobook was created in response to Homer’s The Odyssey and, together with a performance, acts as another form of translation of the epic poem. Reinterpreting an image of the sunset over the Mediterranean, the artist created twenty-eight photographs that refer to cycles in time in The Odyssey. The book challenges the role of the translator and whose stories get told and how.
