? Today we introduce David Favrod @davidfavrod who is one of the artists on display selected by an internationally acclaimed jury ✨Here a sneak peek at David’s work on display - Self portrait, 2009 from the series ‘Gaijin’ ? ‘Gaijin is a Japanese word meaning «the foreigner». My name is David Takashi Favrod. I was born on the 2nd of July 1982 in Kobe, of a Japanese mother and a Swiss father. When I was 6 months old, my parents decided to come and live in Switzerland. Then when I was 18, I asked for double nationality at the Japanese embassy, but they refused, because it is only given to Japanese women who wish to obtain their husband’s nationality. It is from this feeling of rejection and also from a desire to prove that I am as Japanese as I am Swiss that this work was created. «Gaijin» is a fictional recital, a tool for my quest for identity, where auto-portraits imply an intimate and solitary relationship that I have with myself. The mirror image is frozen in a figurative alter ego that serves as an anchor point. The aim of this work is to create «my own Japan», in Switzerland, from memories of my journeys when I was small, my mother’s stories, popular and traditional culture and my grandparents war recitals.’ #DavidFavrod
