In the series Spaces and Memories the mihrabs- shaped window niches, fragments of architecture, cabinets and almirahs, parts of a house that collect and store memories - take on cage-like appearances, echoing the confinement of exile, seeking in the empty spaces the tangible presence of loved ones.
