I can't

Narmina Mursalova

Azerbaijan

The film addresses the struggles of queer artists due to the ongoing oppression and phobia against LGBTI+ youth. The situation in the country leaves many with mental health problems and generally adds up to the lack of motivation that has been there due to the lack of financial and moral resources. Increasing hate crimes against the community threaten many young people and shrinking public safe spaces leave LGBTI+s behind. The film is a self-protest against the ongoing situation and addresses the poor realities of the country regarding queers.

Fridge 2 Fridge

The fridges are placed in an urban context with a sense of history and conflict. On one side is a gentrifying neighborhood; on the other is a cultural center guarding the under-represented. When a domestic object speaks its mother tongue of intimacy, boundaries begin to dissolve. Giving and receiving, entering and leaving, opening and closing, are all packed and shared inside these two fridges, by the name of food, from these fridges to all the fridges.

favela improvement project in Brasilia

The project of improvement of the residential area of the favela in Brasilia is made in the form of a three-dimensional layout using the following materials. The project provides layouts of public toilets. They are painted with white, brown and pink acrylic paint. Next to the toilets, trees -birches, maples - are planted at a distance of 5-7 meters. These trees pull up to 200 liters of water out of the ground in 24 hours. This solution significantly reduces sewage waste water. Drinking taps should be provided on the streets of favelas.
