| | | Firelei Báez: Trust Memory over HistoryEdited by Malou Wedel Bruun, Amalie Marie Laustsen, Mathias Ussing Seeberg. Foreword by Poul Erik Tøjner, Andreas Beitin, Mathias Ussing Seeberg. Text by Marta Fernández Campa, Katrine Rasmussen Kielsen, Warsan Shire. Interview by Mathias Ussing Seeberg.
 A multipronged analysis of the Dominican American artist’s cartographic palimpsestsIn her monumental paintings and installations, the Dominican American artist Firelei Báez (born 1981) creates images bursting with symbols from folktales, colonial occupation, legendary creatures and revolutions. She paints images on top of maps, book pages and found ephemera that combine abstraction and figuration, personal perspectives with grand historical narratives and Caribbean mythology with science fiction. This colorful publication serves as an introduction to Báez’s work. The artist discusses how she interrogates powerful concepts such as truth and history throughout her practice. Special attention is paid to her “palimpsests,” paintings on top of colonial maps or construction plans for colonial architecture, both of which represent the establishment’s notion of objectivity. Inspired by Báez’s works, poet Warsan Shire and author Katrine Rasmussen Kielsen contribute texts considering the legacy of colonialism.
