In this collection of photographs, the artist approaches potholes as portals. Taken by Felemban's father in the late 80s when he worked in the Jeddah municipality to document his before / after work on road maintinance, the artist makes her own interruptions by adding spheric gouache paint atop the potholes. In doing so, she attempts to explore a personal history of exploring construction and architecture to scan and/or designate portals as an escape plan.
