Samaa Wakim & Samar Haddad King
Losing It
PalestinianGrowing up in a war zone, Palestinian performer Samaa Wakim asks herself how this experience has impacted her identity. In her performance «Losing It», she explores how the trauma of previous generations manifests in her own body through movement and sound. Wakim dives into her memories of growing up under occupation, exploring the various realities she lives in, created in dialogue with a live soundtrack by Samar Haddad King. The sounds that once caused fear and the sounds that once provided solace become en tangled to the point where past and present cloud the future. (zts)
