A Moon for My Father (SS) || in Odessa

Mania Akbari collaborates with British sculptor Douglas White to coin a tender fusion of language, where a meeting of cinema and sculpture investigates the processes of physical and psychological destruction and renewal. As she undergoes various surgeries on a body decimated by cancer, her body’s history engages in a conversation of how bodies are traumatized, censored, and politicized, and yet ultimately remain a site of possibility.
