My Private Himalaya questions the objectification of how people and objects become functional transmitters through material goods with gods, divine energy, spirit of the dead and extraterrestrial realities. This living installation plays with the ideas of why do we need objects that will survive for eternity. The dramaturgy of objects is related to icons and iconographic gestures transcending into movement ephemerally coming from religions and conflictual realities of alienation.
