Y’a Hamam Yalla Ma Tnam, Ma Tnam
Entitled Y’a Hamam Yalla Ma Tnam, Ma Tnam (“Oh Pigeon, Don’t Sleep, Don’t Sleep”), a line from a very popular lullaby in Lebanon and Syria, the exhibition brings together works that have never been shown all at once, creating a unique narrative that explores Al Solh’s deep engagement with micro-histories and political agency. The central axis of the exhibition is provided by Nami Nami Noooom, Yalla Tnaaam (""Sleep, Sleep, Sleep, Let’s Sleep""), a powerful, large-scale installation anchoring the show’s emotional and narrative flow.
