We Are All Things

By Elliott Colla

An ordinary room in Cairo. A man, now alone. An assemblage of household objects that aren't so inanimate.

The objects we own bear witness to our secret lives. In We Are All Things, a quiet room becomes a noisy backdrop to heartbreak and other forces of sentience. Here, pillows bemoan lost touch, lamps flicker with the memory of darkness, and the stereo coos a forgotten melody. This illustrated prose poem marries the rhythmic melody of poetry with the fluidity of visual narrative and invites us to imagine the mystery of feeling and the longing nature of existence.

Equal parts Maurice-Ponty and Yahyā al-Tāhir 'Abdallah, We Are All Things is the first collaboration between Elliott Golla and Ganzeer.
