The Making of Three Guns for a Killing, 2011

The Making of Three Guns for a Killing, 2011

details about this work


Katri Walker is based in Glasgow, Scotland


I would identify my practice as functioning in relation to portraiture and a documentary mode of presentation. I see the exploration of subjective realities as an important way into more fully understanding our contemporary global predicaments. I work predominantly with multi-channel audio-visual installations, creating intimate works that document the physical and emotional geographies of my subjects.
