Anna Borrie, Planted Journal, September 11, 2026

Sama Alshaibi is featured in the latest Documenting Conflict interview, exploring the politics of looking and the role of images in representing violence, exile, and displacement.⁠

In conversation with Anna Borrie, the Iraqi-Palestinian artist reflects on how histories of conflict and survival are carried through bodies, landscapes, and memory, while questioning the expectation for those affected by war to become its spokespersons.⁠
