The Improbable Memorial

Saint-Germain-des-Prés

Sinzo Aanza transforms personal trauma into a memorial for Congo's forgotten victims—those lost to the 2002 Nyiragongo eruption and generations of mineral exploitation. Tapestries, embossed panels, and layered portraits create a space for the dead who left no official trace.
