Landa bazaars (thrifting markets) hold the traces of countless lives—worn fabrics passing from one body to another, carrying unseen histories of labor, migration, and survival. Once stripped and fragmented, these remnants lose their ties to identity and ownership, becoming part of a cycle where value is reshaped and obscured.

Landscape of Everyday explores the abstraction of material as a form of erasure—of identity, history, and control. The deconstructed fabric, once clothing with a distinct form and function, dissolves into unrecognizable patterns, resisting any singular narrative. Layered with an image of bodies in motion—running, protesting, or simply navigating the city—the work speaks to displacement and resilience, questioning how both people and material culture move through systems of visibility and loss.
