Victoria Kosasie

is a performance artist based in London and Bali. She is informed by postcolonial feminist literature, interrogating the conflation of womanhood with motherhood in Indonesia, and whether maternal piety may silence or empower the feminine subject. Exploring this through her position as an Indonesian woman in the UK, her work revisits and reconfigures traditions, idioms, and habits distinct to her upbringing - imagining a ‘hybrid home’ where she is the sole subject. Victoria Kosasie is the winner of the Barry Martin Prize for Experimental Art 2022.
