Critical Issues in Contemporary Art Practice: Dora Budor
Dora Budor’s work repurposes the hidden materiality of films and architecture to explore what happens to our bodies and minds in the grip of these powerful forms, which she conceptualizes as living systems.

In recent site-specific works, she has composed nondeterministic systems out of sound, dust, and light, dramatizing the lived history of specific works of architecture.
