A photographic and video journey shows the fragmentation of the landscape revealing the impact that roads create on local populations.

 

Ruptured Domesticity, Iraqi art exhibit

Ruptured Domesticity: mapping spaces of refuge in Iraq

Ruptured Domesticity examines the domestic and intimate spaces of refuge created by Iraqis in preparation for, and in response to, wartime and violence. How do people who have experienced war, trauma and loss, create spaces of refuge in violated homes and cities? Twenty years after the invasion of Iraq, Dr Sana Murrani maps a visual archive exploring the ingenious everyday spatial practices of 15 Iraqis from the north to the south of the country between 2003 and 2020. This exhibition displayed images consisting of photographs, illustrative maps and drawings depicting ruptured spaces of refuge.
