"Artist Larissa Sansour was born in Jerusalem and her practice is underscored by the urgency of Palestine's political problems. She typically deploys dry wit and pop culture references in her work as a means of cutting through cultural divides and connecting the international community with the universal relevance of this situation. Allusions to comic strips, sit coms and Hollywood films feature heavily throughout Sansour's previous works, however this exhibition focuses specifically on her more recent exploration into the genre of sci-fi."

The composited images had an infinite depth of field which captured every detail and made the images look very sharp and focused. The large size of the image and the way the different images had been put together almost made it look 3D and as though you were in the scene looking at it yourself which as a viewer was quite captivating and enjoyable.
This was one of my favourite exhibitions I have visited due to the amount of detail she kept/captured in her composited images and the whole 3D feel of them, I also like how not only this but she got her political views across about Palestine. I also like how her work is very futuristic/space themed.
