| Description | Statement written about Katiana Teixeira's artistic experience and practice studying Fine Art, in which she addresses the difficulties she had reading due to being dyslexic, and English not being her first language, and about her art practice. Katiana writes of a trip to her native Angola, which inspired her to create works out of tin cans, how the relationship to tin cans in the third world differs from that of the West and is often re-used, and how this impacted upon her art practice to engage with recycling. The statement also explains her artwork of the map of Angola [see TU/4/9/1] and the Angola inspired earrings [see TU/4/9/2].
