„Tears of Things“
The point of departure for this work is the personal experience of living in a state of ongoing war, far from home. Tears of Things emerged as an ongoing collection of what remained tangible in moments of shock—images, text fragments, objects, actions. The work reflects on how war, loss, migration, and colonial power structures inscribe themselves into landscapes, bodies, and familial spaces, and how what is familiar becomes alien under pressure.
