Afghanistan

Afghanistan is my father’s homeland. He was born in Kabul in 1945 and later moved first to France, then to Switzerland in the 1970s. In my mind, Afghanistan exists as a geography with blurred edges, something I feel the need to reconcile with. It’s a place I’ve only ever known through stories, a source of memories that, over time, have shifted and become distorted.

The work To Afghanistan (two-channel video, stereo, duration 30 minutes) is now part of the collection of Mufoco, Milano – Cinisello Balsamo, Italy. ©2024 Museo di Fotografia Contemporanea
