In the face of displacement, exile, conformity, and crisis, these video poems approach existence as resistance. Creating belonging in new places, taking up space through performance art, examining the material reality of tragedy, and communing with nature to explore internal worlds—the works in this showcase offer sure footing and tender steps forward as the global landscape shifts beneath our feet.
