A tender, intimate encounter between the artist and her mother, embodied by participant and performer in this 1:1 live VR performance.

This part-memoir, part-immersive archive draws audiences inside a digital reconstruction of the artist’s childhood home on an intimate journey that follows the complexities of her relationship with her mother across three decades marked by regional unrest and her eventual migration.

Nazar unfolds as experiential poetry within evil eye protection sessions, shared regularly over the years by mother and daughter, communicated primarily through touch.

Slowly moving past personal narratives, embodied performances invite audiences to experience these practices, extended virtually into a speculative future, not only as methodologies of deeply enduring care, but as ritualistic acts of soft resistance.

Nazar culminates in a magical choreography of motion-captured gestures, surveillance drones recordings, and chants, sealing a covenant between a people and their land, moon, clouds, stars and vines.
