RIVER BRAID BY Deyaa Yousef
“In a visual, performative, poetic language, I try in this work to create a journey to follow the sky that flows inside our hearts. The world is born through what we feel as if life were our other self, everything connected to who we are today through an invisible strand of sensation.
The work indicates the seamless knowledge sharing of feminine energy generation after generation, as well as the virtue of staying in touch with our inner childhood. And to contemplate the beautiful weakness of our inner child and his longing to be seen, heard. No matter how sad the disclosure between us and ourselves, we are her best healer and friend. Nietzsche says: “No one can build you the bridge on which you, and only you, must cross the river of life.” And the river in this work is a braid!.”
