When disasters force people to migrate,/where will they be welcomed with open arms? Hoping for a better/life, they struggle in a never-ending limbo, an in-between space that/strips them of their known identity. Maybe at this point, Nature is the/sole safe haven for these refugees. The sky becomes the ceiling and the/mountains become the walls of their new homes, because Nature is/the only place that promises shelter, an eternal and everlasting refuge./GOHAR DASHTI” translation: remark: --- CURRENT EXHIBITIONS --- LEGACY EXHIBITIONS --- PROVENANCE --- fun fact: digital description: wall description: --- RELATED WORKS --- CITATIONS --- IMAGES
