Spanning two decades of work, the exhibition traces how Ala Younis weaves together archives, architecture and personal narrative to explore both regional history and everyday life.
Her practice blends found materials, drawings, films, mosaics, textiles and archival assemblages, some commissioned for this show, others re‑contextualised from earlier projects.
The pieces invite viewers to consider not just what has happened, but how memory is constructed, erased or reshaped over time.
Visitors can expect a layered, immersive experience that prompts reflection on the past and its implications for the future.
