How do we define home; is it a place, a body, a memory, or something we carry within?
Dwelling / Departing invites audiences into a living installation that reflects on the impermanence and intimacy of "home." Rooted in the memory of lives lost, the masked figures represent spirits who have departed their physical homes, their bodies. You are invited not just to observe but to participate, write, draw, whisper, or place objects to contribute to a growing archive of what it means to belong.
EXHIBITION WILL BE OPEN ON:

In this new iteration of the Masking / Unmasking series, Myanmar artist Kamizu presents ‘Dwelling / Departing’—a participatory tribute to those who lost their lives resisting Myanmar’s military regime. Through the presence of masked faces, the installation honors their courage and sacrifice, offering a poetic space for remembrance. In a quiet, contemplative setting, visitors are invited to be fully present—to grieve, reflect, and perhaps rediscover a sense of home within themselves.
