Textile installation
‘The Other Home’ (2024) is a large-scale textile installation that examines ideas of exile and migration. The artwork, composed of various vertical panels, addresses a range of emotions associated with homelessness and the process of developing new social ties and forms of belonging. By using fabric from different parts of the Middle East and South and Central Asia, she recomposes her own affective landscape and reflects the collective struggle to find a sense of home in ourselves and in the world.
