fables for introverts



For NADA House 2022, I considered moments of lost reflection within the past few years. In spite of reproducing familiar images centering national and racial identity at the periphery of trauma, war, violence and displacement, I focused on representing moments of quiet dialogue - a meeting of subjects that carry with them their own cultural and social identities - yet offer a potential perspective in representing the act of rest and quiet as an active, and subversive space to the cacophony of noise in our daily lives. Ultimately, I consider the works a Fables for Introverts: existing on their own terms.
