About Elena Kalkova is an artistic researcher and educator. In her socially engaged practice, through sculptural experimentation, writing, and film collaborations, she explores weaponisations of memorylessness, state propaganda, alternatives to oppressive monumentality, resistance and care, and complex relationships with the home, especially when the home is a dictatorship.
