a friend of the ram



An explorative embodiment of an Ibex’s long journey from Sharm El Sheikh to Aleppo. Following the journey of the risky well balanced mountain goat traveling through the Sinai Peninsula, to Jerusalem, Palestine, the coast of Lebanon and through the mountains of Al-Ansariyyah to find rest in Aleppo. She shares one sided conversations with the many beings she meets along the way. Tree guides, the enemy, and her companion - the ram. Based on a fragment of a floor mosaic from Northern Syria in the Byzantine period, 5th century.
