Hand-dyed fabric, etching and ash. 1.2m x 1.6m

Exhibited at Nida Art Colony Galleries, Lithuania (2019) for the show Maramica (handkerchief in Bosnian).

In the exhibition space all residents presented a joint group text and textile installation, including textile pieces from different materials, such as rope, fabric, paper, and sand. There were items for self-improvement, rituals, purification, radical kindness, soothing, healing, satisfaction, liberation, libations, alternative disguise, emotional speculation, unregulated border crossings, smuggling, piracy, and trespassing.
