This short video from the series Movements: Larry Achiampong + Jamilah Sabur is part of a co-creation project led by Marie-Hélène Lemaire and the PHI Foundation's education team in collaboration with special guest Méshama Rose Eyob-Austin. For this co-creation, Méshama Rose Eyob-Austin and Marie-Hélène Lemaire also wrote a "water poem" in two voices, which we invite you to read as a complement to this video.
