This work investigates how the Palestinian socity utilised the refugee camp to get together in times of crises.
Gathered on a rooftop in Mohammad Amin refugee camp, individuals from diverse backgrounds-Jordanians, Palestinians, Sudanese, Iraqis, and Syrians-came together to express hopeful visions for 2047. Our voices were amplified through speakers, resonated throughout the entire neighbourhood, where buildings are hoding each other tight, reaching the ears of other people residing in the camp. Our aim was to spread care across the camp, concluding 2020 on a positive note in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Out Loud Conversation is a response to the global arts festival "Projection Art Festival Project/Forward 2047."  The festival highlights artworks of resilience, hope, and imagination from around the world, focusing on unconventional public spaces in Jordan, Kenya, Nepal, Indonesia, Colombia, and Peru
