Coming Soon: Tethered Narratives by Kamila Waleszkiewicz & Mandana Eizadi | 2–20 Dec 2026 | Rockingham Arts Centre
My poetry explores memory, identity, family history, and the embodied experience of dwelling in the world. Written in English, these poems emerge from my practice as a visual artist, where language and image become intertwined ways of understanding lived experience.
