In LIBERTY, the artist continues her investigation on the circulation of goods, property ownership, and the boundary between private and public space, highlighting the current cost of living crisis. The title refers not only to Liberty of London (one of the longest running luxury department stores in English history) an “artistic shopping paradise” as defined by Oscar Wilde, but also to the value of goods, analysing their origin, production, distribution and consumption.
