Rebuilding Beirut with Pride

In recent bodies of work, I have been exploring biography of wheat,  filtering, ventilation systems, prosthetics, Polish folklore, queer technoscience and science fiction. In my work I'm questioning whether humanity’s footprint on our planet has sunk too deep. Have the scars caused by the towering chimneys of the industrial revolution left a wound which won’t heal? I'm researching the examples of yesterday’s optimism and signs of progress and how they can be reassessed in dystopic age of today.
