Hegemonia Saliva
Art Installation
Collaboration with Domink FleischmannExhibited at Photographic Gallery Hippolyte as part of Nuoret 2023.
Dominik’s and Amy’s collaboration questions the relationship between Europe and Latin America and discusses responsibilities regarding the global ecological crisis. The two artist’s visual conversation started in spring 2021 with an exchange of artworks and Amy’s use of Dominik’s photographs in combination with graphic design to create a new language of expression.

Decoloniality and decolonization show us possible equitable and fair futures–these movements defy hegemonic powers and the logic of coloniality.
The first instance of the collaboration led to a limited edition of handcrafted risograph zines and a solo exhibition at Galleria Uusi Kipinä in Lahti (September 2021).
This project was successfully completed with the support of
