At Swivel Gallery, Amy Bravo Confronts Intergenerational Trauma, Identity and the Power of the Collective

For a long time, Amy Bravo’s art practice has been a restless attempt to carve out her own identity as a queer woman artist and to reconcile her stratified, partially denied and erased family lineage, which connects her to both Cuba and the south of Italy. She has embarked, through her art, on a cathartic journey to confront the dismissed and suppressed weight of intergenerational trauma, probing its essence through a largely subconscious and intuitive appropriation and resemanticization of fragmented familial narratives.
