Building long-term artistic collaborations connecting embodiment, land and diasporic memory.

Marit-Shirin’s artistic practice engages with questions of memory, migration, and embodied knowledge, focusing on how experiences that are not always visible or formally recorded are carried and transmitted through the body.


My relational practice explores how movement, sound, and performative practices function as carriers of diasporic memory and Indigenous knowledge. I explore embodied coalitions as relational practices that mediate collective histories across cultural and terrestrial contexts.
