An extensive "Works" section compiles their output from 2003 onward, tracing their investigations into political symbols, migration, belonging, and collective memory. With rigor and precision, G nyol and Kunt transform familiar objects and concepts, opening new possibilities for meaning, and offering courage and hope in re-imagining shared realities.
