" A SELf Portrait "
The cracks i n happiness
The video delves into the interaction between embodiment and memory, providing an exploration of the bodily experience within changing environments. As the protagonist escapes the concealed reality, she follows the undercurrent of error, seeking belonging amidst chaos where the cracks reveal hidden truths. Her research on bodies engaging the surroundings adress the Damascus Room itself , which the artist considers to be another migrant among others.
