Yelena speaks to Anna Zoria, an artist who was born in Russia just before the dissolution of the USSR. Anna grew up in Canada, and lived in France. Anna and Yelena discuss the interstitial feelings of inhabiting several countries at once, music and poetry as time-space-travel devices, grandparents and ideology, Soviet furniture and fashion fetishization, comfort food, and the state of being lost in translation.

ANNA ZORIA

Artist living and working in Canada and France. She makes work about doing nothing, anticipation, boredom, and repetition.
