Yosr Ben Messaoud

The project uses tin cans to explore themes of exile and migration. These cans symbolize connections between migrants and their homelands, containing food prepared by loved ones. The cans transform into sensory vessels for video installations, representing bonds despite the absence of familiar landmarks. Through this project, Yosr seeks to restore the voices of expatriates and those lost in exile, tracing their official and unofficial travels - through memory and imagination - in pursuit of stability and a welcoming community, with these cans crossing borders alongside them.
