in relation to my Kurdish heritage. My work could be read as attempts to rediscover a forgotten culture and explore my own understanding around displaced identities. In my practice, I work with video, interviews, and archival footage as well as sound elements. The archival videos tend to return the focus to my Kurdish roots, using sound to depict cultural folk music and traditional dances of celebration or expression of anguish and separation from one&#8217;s own country. Throughout my work, there are ongoing conversations about Kurdish politics with family and friends where I interview and have conversations with them. Alongside to this, I display the process of using clay to construct and form a shape. These shapes may be adapted to traditional Kurdish pot structures, or they may be pots that have not yet adapted to that shape but have become uniquely shaped. A major part of my inspiration comes from conversations I have had with my Baba (dad) over the dinner table about our Kurdish heritage and the limitations placed on Kurds and their culture. The aim of my process is to symbolise my own journey to explore and develop my understanding on my Kurdish heritage.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-515ef084 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"515ef084\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-663bd9f1\" data-id=\"663bd9f1\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-34bb0eca elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"34bb0eca\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sitesb.reading.ac.uk\/art-degree-show-2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/38\/elementor\/thumbs\/Temur-S.-2-q6vuizqkgfatuznqfj61bee6ksebeo7usmp9hjm7wo.png\" title=\"Temur, S. 2\" alt=\"Temur, S. 2\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">No politics on the table, Clay work, 16cm x 13cm, 2022<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-44003f56\" data-id=\"44003f56\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-124c31de elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"124c31de\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sitesb.reading.ac.uk\/art-degree-show-2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/38\/elementor\/thumbs\/Temur-S.-3-q6vujkf0ms34yetp2s3tu96bn9ke40hy7h1y1mrk3s.png\" title=\"Temur, S. 3\" alt=\"Temur, S. 3\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Bringing politics to the table -
