“A Look In Retrospect” (2025)
Writing that explores “Al-ghorba;” an arabic word that refers to being a stranger in a foreign land. This exploration is carried out through the lens of material culture, asking how objects help us navigate identity, memory, and belonging in unfamiliar places. Blending theory, autoethnographic writing, and current socio-cultural contexts, the writing traces the emotional life of objects, from childhood keepsakes to clothing.PRINTED
