Rebuilding Beirut with Pride

McEvoy’s practice explores her personal relationship with social mobility and the desire for assimilation. This investigation takes place by means of the collection of souvenirs, material traces of existence. These relics are presented alongside hand-built ceramic vessels created as an ode to aspiration. McEvoy’s work explores the gathering of cultural capital as well as the performative aspects of taste and its ephemeral nature.
