“One’s forgotten journey from place to place is unique, it is a constant rewrite of our own experiences onwards”

Migration equals movement, a forward movement of ourselves as well as our cultural identity. We leave behind and surrender ourselves to a journey of new hope. In a state of displacement there is only dreams we can rely on, dreams of a better future. Mandy’s new project ‘A Forgotten Journey’ is both a research and attempt to  visualize her the family’s migration history in the Middle-East. Having to leave their country of origin, they had no choice of moving towards a new future elsewhere. In her search through personal family stories and documentation about this period, she finds value in creating art as a family legacy for coming generations and everyone that resonates with migration and how that effects us and our future.
