Sculpture, 2024

Rug, Fish Tank, Prints

This work is an act of mourning, reflecting both personal and collective loss —particularly the loss of cultural identity. P hotos of my mother, grandfather and Islamic presence in the streets of Dengzhou are submerged in water.

Water is often seen as harmless and nurturing, but it also has the capacity to conceal and destroy. Our story is flooded, sealed inside a tank, removed from the flowing river of our culture and faith.
