Speechless Witness of a Wandering Tree explores the act of blinding as a historical tool of oppression. Through an evocative audio archive and temporally immersive storytelling, we follow the fragmented memories of a woman who lost her eye to police bullets during a protest. Her voice guides us through symbolic rituals - drawing an eye on a wall where slogans are erased, burying bullets in the desert - transforming trauma into poetic resistance. By merging intimate testimony with spatial immersion, the piece invites audiences to witness not only what was taken, but what remains: resilience, memory, and the will to see anew.
A VR experience told through the eyes and memories of a protester who lost an eye after being struck by police bullets during a demonstration.
