The Story Behind
What is a House, Bed Mattress and Horse? by Moosa SILWADI, Coming soon
Inspired by the horses that relocate refugees after their houses are destroyed in Gaza with only sleeping mattresses to be saved to sleep at.
Horse from war, redefine destruction, transfers, morphology via visual dialogue of the destroyed houses elements; such as rebars & (Concrete) only.
However the twist in this visual dialogue is that the concrete here is made from a sleeping bed mattress, a metaphor of the most valuable item the (bed mattresses) that are saved and carried from place to another by horses!
Mahmoud Darwish: "On This Earth":
On this earth has what is worthy of life,
the recurrence of April,
the smell of bread at dawn,
the opinion of a woman in men,
the writings of Aeschylus,
the beginning of love, moss on a stone,
mothers standing on a flute’s string and the invaders’ fear of memories.
