‘Unshore’, Old suitcase, sand and air humidifier, 2024.

c. 1400, unseur, of a place, “not safe against attack,” also, of persons, “lacking certainty,” from un- “not” and sure. By early 15c. as “dependent on chance.”
The key of return—the symbolic act of holding onto the keys to their homes—embodies Palestinian resilience and the enduring connection to their homeland amid the ongoing genocide in Gaza (and previously, the Nakba). Central to Palestinian culture and activism, it signifies resistance and the relentless pursuit of justice.

Using sand from his garden, Alaric explores the concept of “home from home,” with the coastline serving as both a border and a gateway, symbolising departure, arrival, and displacement. This piece reflects on “emotional baggage” and “living from a suitcase,” addressing the shared trauma of refugees and rough sleepers.

I came here for my first shot at social media. I've found a lot of both pros and cons, but I do see it as a necessary means of direct connection in the modern world. That said, it's time for me to go.

As the War of White Privilege turns hot--and combines with the death throes of religion--we have some REALLY dark days ahead. I can't allow myself to become distracted by all the noise, so I'm cutting it off. I leave this account open, but dormant. Thank you.
