Alagi

An artistic journey exploring the legacy of the grandmother Alagi, weaving together memory and identity, myth and reality. Through this work, the artist engages with the past, transforming family recollections into visual expressions - a deeply personal and intimate exploration.

Alagi, whose name echoes Alhagi maurorum, a shrub with delicate flowers, was a woman of a fascinating and enigmatic history, caught between two names. Each piece in this series is an attempt to make what was once planted bloom - bridging generational trauma with a profound investigation of the self, where beauty emerges through the tangled roots of family.
