My Mother's Mother’ The project is an exploration of the concept relating to transgenerational trauma. It features symbolic "bundles" made of lead crystal, each of different sizes, scattered around the installation space. These bundles are connected by braided human hair, representing the unseen emotional bonds that link generations. The hair, red in colour and intricately braided, weaves a complex web throughout the installation, creating an emotionally charged atmosphere.
