Havîn Al-Sîndy works in Kurdistan and Germany. Her artistic practice moves between performance, sculpture, painting, and moving images. At its core lies the relationship between visibility and invisibility – and the ambivalences that arise in the act of making visible. Intangible archives such as memories, body knowledge, cellular memory, and collective remembrance form the core of her work – fragile, contradictory, yet powerful forms of knowledge. She explores how these are transmitted, overwritten, or suppressed – and how they inscribe themselves in the body. Her approach is process-based and collaborative, often developed in intergenerational exchange with young people. The aim is to make silenced perspectives audible and visible – not as representation, but as part of a shared practice. Materials such as earth, clay, or paper signify not only origin, but also a form of knowledge that exists beyond traditional archives. She is currently a professor at the University of Fine Arts Braunschweig.
