Land Mark (Foot Prints)

Land Mark (Foot Prints) documents activist collaborations in Vieques, where altered shoe soles stamped protest slogans onto former military land. The photographs capture fragile, temporary marks of dissent that question land use, power, and reclamation through everyday actions.

Still Visible After Gezi

In Still Visible After Gezi, Roberley Bell documents 16 Istanbul trees photographed in 2010 and revisited in 2015. The installation traces memory, survival, and urban change, using frames to show each tree’s past, present, and absence after the city’s transformations.

Sandalia is a limited edition rubber sculpture of 60 sandals, featuring relief maps of Havana neighborhoods on the soles. Transforming a mass-produced object into art, it reflects place, identity, and culture, inspired by watercolor drawings of Old Havana and Vedado.

The sculpture multiple Sandalia is an edition of 60. The object is produced from a rapid prototype model and cast in rubber. By producing a limited edition of rubber sandals with relief maps of Havana neighborhoods on the soles, the artists adapted an ordinary object of mass production into a customized and poeticized icon that speaks of place, identity and culture. Sandalia derives from a series of watercolor drawings of sandals with maps. The right sandal depicts Old Havana, the left Vedado.
