"In her Constructing Pasts workshop, she invites participants to explore the constantly shifting city as both a space and metaphor for the transformations in our own lives.

Rana will take us on a 15-20 minute walk around tender prospects, focusing on construction sites in an area shaped by rapid urban change and gentrification. Upon return, through a series of writing prompts, we will reflect on moments of transition, reconstruction and renewal in our personal histories.

By taking construction as a metaphor, Rana invites you to experiment with reshaping and reframing your personal narratives. Not to fix a past, but to celebrate it as an ongoing evolution and to reclaim the city as a space of belonging, holding and mirroring the changes in our own inner worlds."
