Promontory |
Hormuz Minina arrived in the United States 18 years ago from Bombay,
India; he employs art to reflect on his immigrant experience, often using
technology to this end. Minina’s installations have commented on universal
and personal themes ranging from war’s effects on children to immigrant
identity, among others. His artwork has been exhibited at Eyedrum and
the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center, both in Atlanta, Georgia and Space
One Eleven, Birmingham, Alabama, among other places. Minina’s installation War
Child, at Atlanta’s Garage Projects was selected as one of Creative
Loafing Atlanta’s Top 10 art events of 2005; his 2003 Shedspace installation, Cultural
Divide, was a Critics’ Pick for the Best of Atlanta awards. |
