This project began with research into the disapeared Lower Manhattan neighborhood of ‘Little Syria’, the al Mahjar literary movement that blossomed there, and over the years involved historic preservation efforts, documentation and maintenance of an historical archive, a participatory parade in conjunction with the 2015 Armory Show, and a two-year residency at the Queens Museum (2014-2016) during which ephemera from the archive were situated into an evolving sculptural installation in conversation with the utopiam architectural visions and urban renewal operations of Robert Moses.
