OHMA EXHIBITS: a collection of interactive oral history encounters

2022 Bio Tamara Santibañez

Tamara Santibañez is an interdisciplinary artist and oral historian living and working in Brooklyn. Their work is rooted in storytelling and the visual language of identity construction, exploring subcultural semiotics and the meanings we make from bodily adornment. They approach the body as a contested political territory and as a site for archiving and accessing personal and collective narratives, proposing tattooing as a political intervention. tamarasantibanez.com
