»Atlas Fractured« (2017), digital video by Theo Eshetu, Documenta 14
As one of the 31 faces, I am making an appearance in Theo Eshetu’s video essay on humanness under the lens of ethnicity, psychology, politics, and philosophy. A thoroughly thought-through work to (again) admit in all its heterogeneity and complexity – just like the last voice in the video says – that “we are more alike, than unalike.”
