Manifestation Of A Nightmare (projekt Zealous), 2023
4 x 3 x 2 meters
Ceramics, textiles, incense,e and watercolours
For Kulturnatta, I collaborated with two Swedish artists on an exhibition at Syntropia. The venue, which was partially damaged, evoked associations with war-torn Syria. We decided to preserve its ruined state to recreate the feeling of a room after a bombing. Ceramic flip-flops and an embroidered dress enhanced the narrative, symbolizing the destruction of my Syrian home after bombardment. Bakhour was used to intensify the sensory experience.
