Oh My Homeland is a film about Leontyne Price’s farewell opera performance. It’s a film about representation, art, and material exchange; about endings, identity, love, power, patriotism and the transcendent potential of art through the viewing of a face receiving adoration. It is a readymade and like my book 'Night Moves' and my video "Tatum's Ghost" it continues to explore YouTube as a cultural and social archive.
