Descrição
Holding What Happened centers the quiet, charged moment after an act of violence has already taken place. Two figures stand together, having just watched a neighbor taken by force; their phones, once raised to record, now rest loosely in their hands. The screens that first served as witness have fallen away, and their bodies turn toward each other instead—holding what happened not as footage, but as shared memory, fear, and grief.
In their embrace, witnessing shifts from something distant and technological to something deeply embodied. They carry the weight of what they saw between them, refusing to let it disappear into silence or abstraction. The work lingers in that space where shock becomes feeling, and feeling becomes a kind of quiet, human refusal to let this violence go unnamed or unheld.
