Description
A visually striking, non-verbal solo puppetry performance exploring climate change, displacement, and human connection. Inspired by Persian visual culture, traditional Iranian arts, music, and storytelling, the work combines pop-up book elements, puppetry, movement, and visual storytelling to reflect on migration, loss, and resilience. Accessible to intergenerational audiences, the performance transcends language barriers and invites empathy and reflection on climate change, forced migration, and our shared responsibility.
