Bilisa Abdullahi, Phagophobia

I create artwork based off of a highly specific memory from my childhood. That memory being the first time my mother told me the story of my grandfather’s unfortunate death, he died on a chicken bone and this story has haunted me ever since. And this artwork is my way of expressing my childhood fear that still scares me till this day. 

Materials: Wires, red tissue paper, wooden circle spheres, cans, and red buttons
