Synopsis

Written To Not Remain is a visual investigation looking into the act of writing on the walls across post-revolution Libya, positioning collective statements as ephemeral evidences of contemporary and historical events, social commentary, correspondences, or often silent protests, serving as testimonies of the times from 2011 onwards, reflecting the state of the world through the western-led manufactured wars in Libya. In this video work combining archival imagery and acts made inside a VR simulation, Barnosa translated and transmits a photo archive she began collecting from 2019 onwards, elaborating on a few happenings from over 200 images of writings, as source materials alongside a text recitation.
