Manzoa, Jizan. 2007
Documentation of a performance that took place in a district of Jizan inhabited by people about to move out. On each house was the word "manzoa," signifying that these houses would soon to be taken away. Gharem painted the word "manzoa" on his shirt and for a day and a night moved about among them, as if a ghost.
