Donga (2023)
“There was excitement in the air,” says Donga, now in his late twenties, describing his feelings when the uprising against Muammar Gaddafi’s rule broke out in 2011. He was 19, living in Misrata, and boldly went to film the fighting with a friend. A decade later, in a hotel in Istanbul, where he has been living since he was wounded in battle, he looks back on the past ten years through excerpts from his videos. And he reflects on how that period has affected him.

Picturesque Tripoli (1911)
Oasis in the desert: we see palm trees, camels, and a panoramic view of the village. Men exit a mosque. Women and children assemble and the women prepare a meal--smiling and laughing when they notice the camera. A group of men and children emerge with a camel from an underground gallery. A man harvests fruits from a tree. A woman vigorously crushes the fruit with a stone. A child stomps the fruit with his feet inside a container. The people often look directly at the camera while they work. We see the process of their labor production, followed by views of the old fortress, the citadel, and the village. A woman fetches water from a well in a bucket. A donkey raises a ruckus and causes a scene. A small child smiles and nods while holding the side of his head after a fight, indicating that he did well.

Written To Not Remain
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.
