This documentary is dedicated to the Sarawi people, who were exiled from Morocco into the Sahara Desert, but always clung to the belief that they would one day go back. Through the eyes of 11 year-old Coria, it tells the story of women who, contrary to what the media would have one believe, are proud, go to school, work, and fight for their rights.

The story of the Sahrawi women’s struggle to create a life out of nothing, all the while dreaming of the “homes” they’ve never seen, all through the eyes of young Coria...

Good News from the Skies

Inspired by the exhibition And Now the Good News, which focusing on the relationship between mass media and art, we prepared horoscope readings based on the chapters of the exhibition. Using the popular astrological language inspired by the effects of the movements of celestial bodies on people, these readings with references to the works in the exhibition make fictional future predictions inspired by the horoscope columns that we read in the newspapers with the desire to receive good news about our day. 

The Ottoman Way of Serving Coffee

The Ottoman Way of Serving Coffee

Coffee was served with much splendor at the harems of the Ottoman palace and mansions. First, sweets (usually jam) was served on silverware, followed by coffee serving. The coffee jug would be placed in a sitil (brazier), which had three chains on its sides for carrying, had cinders in the middle, and was made of tombac, silver or brass. The sitil had a satin or silk cover embroidered with silver thread, tinsel, sequin or even pearls and diamonds.
