LOOPS FOR HOLES

Stained tea and coffee paper, bounded wooden books, sketches, toy soldiers, cement cylinder.

like a piece of forgotten & appropriated history.
Rock formation Beirut is made of layers of destruction of natural and human disaster.
Representation of cycles of change & repetition.
Armies gathered, formed uniformed and replaced by clearer vision of present day. The shard represents visible bullet holes & the hidden humanity or the lack thereof.
A record of the producers of many weapons and the people's hearts.

BOX ON A SHELF

Fired and unfired ceramic and clay. Also sketches and process work.

Contains series of fragmented drawings that explain the background of my character. The character and a collection of entities of the same type, live in a stored inaccessible place in the mind. This place mimics a motionless abandoned beach. The character is a hybrid of a bird and a rock-like head with human features. Mostly she lives in conflict between her animal instincts and her humanness. Blending with her environment, she's the last sign of long- lost humans and wingless bird. Also living in the area, are elements and creatures that look like rocks and shells. The inhabitants of the area are all connected together by nature but also bound together and unable to move a muscle without interrupting the others stillness. They are practicing stillness as to influence their environment. if they move, this stillness disintegrates, and a chain reaction sets off a catastrophic flood or virus that will encase the area. The aftermath and whatever can be salvaged from such an event is unpredictable. Frozen in defiance by natures' design they have rendered their world motionless and stagnant.

TWO OPPOSING BACKS AND STORIES

Ceramic flat slabs

In straight opposition with yourself. One memory and a reflection, some can't bare to see. The veiled and unveiled faces in the city of red and blue skies.

YOUR JUST PRESENT AND IT'S OK

Ceramic flat slabs 

Won the war for my own throne, limbs firmly planted, facing the large one. The thrown stands on the head of personal strength and resilience. The thrown sits un-top of a repressed part that continues to hold space.
