In the painting called “The Consciousness of Memory, Time, and Guilt” as in many of her recent works, the body is fragmented. The brain, the ear, the eyes, these body parts that put us in relation with the other and link the visible to the invisible, remain isolated. Whereas the skulls are joined by lines evoking rivers. She often used images of the Ganga and of the Nile, two rivers burdened with history. The words “consciousness, memory, guilt, time, collective” create a new level of connections. One can notice an ear, which could link to the inside and the outside of the body while referring to the aspect of sound, the noise of the world we are part of. Anna Boghighian constructs an eminently personal space inhabited by her story but nevertheless aware of the world and the transformations and mutations at stake.
Anna Boghighian makes drawings and paintings of individuals and urban spaces as well as being a writer and a poet. Her artistic process can be seen as an attempt to make a cartography of the world. According to her, individuals are conditioned by the environment that surrounds them, and the “self “ by the walls build by cultural, religious or political conditioning. She constantly travels in order to abolish frontiers, creating wherever she is, but always ending up returning to her hometown Cairo. In the 1960s, she composed music using the sounds of the city that she then adapted into a painting. Her paintings always present dense compositions to which she sometimes associates some of her writings. Her narratives mix personal stories and politics, ranging from the past to the present, deconstructing reality to create a mythological aspect, depicting a world in movement, in constant transformation.
