something borrowed,
something red
Living abroad for most of my adulthood, I became worried about losing connection with Turkmenistan and Turkmen culture — significant parts of my identity.
Addressing identity in the decolonial framework of the former Soviet republics, this project aims to understand the place I was born and raised and how its historical changes have shaped me.
This long-term project conceptually consists of several parts and is based on personal experience, Turkmen history and Turkmen mythology.
