Sleeping Wings are air-filled cushions encircled by locks of hair.
Secrets represents the disparate lives of refugees, each with unvoiced hopes, memories, and secrets. I would have liked to collect all the stories and names while simultaneously acknowledging the impossibility of doing this.
The material used in this work is fragile, like the refugees' condition.
