“A tent, designed as a temporary shelter, becomes a fragile refuge during the genocide in Gaza, offering no safety from the biting cold of harsh winter nights or the threat of falling bombs.
My Tent is Not a Shelter installation reflects this reality, embodying both resilience and fragility. This delicate structure expresses my experiences over the past two years as I bore witness to my family’s struggles from afar. It also serves as a powerful symbol for my people, who are still living in tents over the rubble of their destroyed homes.
As I write this, a ceasefire has been applied after more than 700 days of genocide in Gaza. Our loved ones—families and friends—are forced to live in unsafe shelters. With no protection, these temporary homes consist of tents lining the streets, with the sky as their roof and fragile fabric as their doors.”
