Sarah-Mecca Abdourahman: Memories We Carry, Stories We Heal
Exhibition dates: March 27 to May 3, 2025
In this exhibition at the Warren G. Flowers Art Gallery, Sarah-Mecca Abdourahman explores the complexities of memory and nostalgia in her everlasting search for a connection to her parent鈥檚 homelands, Somalia and India. A longing for home that can bring grief and joy. Delving into these contrasting emotions, Abdourahman鈥檚 work moves between themes of haunting and healing, evoking the bittersweet. Her yearning is woven into the fabric of multimedia-painted blankets and installations which allude to both the innocence of childhood and its nightmares.
