The research project explores the intersection of personal experience, colonialism, labor, and identity through the lens of a delivery worker in Berlin. Balancing full-time work and studies, the researcher integrates their daily routine into their artistic process, using moments of transit for reflection and creation. Influenced by postcolonial thinkers and existential philosophy, the work blends personal narratives with broader theoretical concepts. The project seeks to communicate directly, embracing physicality as a source of inspiration. Ultimately, it highlights the transformative power of interdisciplinary exploration and personal storytelling in understanding complex societal issues.
