The series “The Past Is Another Country”consists of Vlatka Horvat’s interventions into historical family photographs taken in socialist Yugoslavia during the 1960s and 1970s. The artist crops, folds, and displaces images of her mother in these photographs in order to present them in new spatial and environmental situations and establish new relationships among photographic space, setting, and the figure itself. Presenting archival and historical documents in a fragmented and restructured manner, Horvat foregrounds the illusive character of individual and social memory. In this series, the artist creates gaps and dislocations that refer to the obliteration, negation, substitution, and transformation of memories, events, and documents out of the need to manipulate and construct a coherent and continuous narrative, thus further complicating the possibilities of a historical image.
