Through a collection of immersive sculptures, textiles, films and performances, the exhibition invites viewers to contemplate their own roles in building a world where conflict is not an ending, but a catalyst for new possibilities.

Song Hà, whose name means “twin rivers” in Vietnamese, is a multidisciplinary filmmaker and poet. Her work is dedicated to harnessing the power of the earth to recover marginalised memory and create futures that celebrate difference.
