Her journey and her most recent artistic projects, including single-channel video and video installations, as well as projects done in collaboration with different communities.

Gabriela Golder's practice is cyclical, her works explore individual and collective memory, the corporal traces of memory, and identity. The marks of personal history. The notion of disappearance. Of displacement. Of resistance. Of the possibility of resistance. Of the logic of survival. Of action. The gaze as well. The act of looking. And time.
