Outline

For Land Creation is a set of tools specifically designed for Mehran Karimi NASSERI. It focuses mainly on his fragile mental state of living at the airport without nationality, family or friends, while soil becomes a metaphor for the non-existing homeland and the tools become a conduit for NASSERI to not only collect but distribute these “lands” in different locations in order to create his own attachments within the transient space.
