Digital Tracings of Home in the Diaspora
2020
Animation/digital 3d model
Digital Tracings of Home in the Diaspora is an animation featuring three digital models that explore my
identity as a Muslim and Arabic speaking Arab-Canadian. The work presents a digital experience with
chosen landscape features at Cooksville Creek in Mississauga, near my first home in Canada, post-migration.
The rocks, amongst the first Canadian landscape features that I had the chance to encounter immediately
upon arrival to Canada, are digitally scanned, then transfigured by text in my native language, Arabic.
Exhibited at the Beauty in Islamic Art exhibition (2020) at THEMUSEUM in Kitchener, Ontario.
