Sarah-Mecca Abdourahman: Memories We Carry, Stories We Heal

In this exhibition, Sarah-Mecca Abdourahman explores the complexities of memory and nostalgia in her everlasting search for a connection to her parent’s homelands, Somalia and India.  A longing for home that can bring grief and joy.  Delving into these contrasting emotions, Abdourahman’s work moves between themes of haunting and healing, evoking the bittersweet.  Her yearning is woven into the fabric of multimedia-painted blankets and installations which allude to both the innocence of childhood, and its nightmares.
