Into the Veil of the Lost is a poetry video that was created in collaboration with other artists from the Lost+ Found hybrid artistic residency which took place in 2021 when the world was still on lockdown as a result of COVID-19. 

The residency combined virtual and physical space to provide an alternative to artistic residency which was conducted in a period of 2 months (from August 12 to September 15), working with13 artists from 10 countries working in different creative disciplines.

This video was part of a performative installation which featured collaborative and individual artistic productions by other artists in the residency. It explores how loss can linger in places - somewhere around us - in a veil, waiting to be found again. The piece takes you on a journey to explore and experience different forms of loss, and decide what you might - or might not - bring back home again.

The Lost & Found hybrid artistic residency is a creative collaboration between the E.A.S.T collective, Freehand Movement, Positively African and Ugly Duck.  

Collaborating artists and filmmakers include:
Alexander Ludwick, Alex Ikawah, Anna Eve Cardovillis, Checkmate Mido, Chief Nyamweya, daniel büche, Delasi Nunana, Diya Naidu, Geraldine Hepp, Ibiye camp, Joanne Corrigall, Joshua Alibet, Katlego Kai Kolanyane-Kesupile, Kevin karanja, Kevin Munyi Kevin Wang'ombe, Lena Giovanazzi, Maïmouna Jallow, Nabaggala Lilian, Pamela Enyonu, Poppy Spowage, Rohini Das, Tana Kioko, Valerie Amani, Zuhura the African Lioness.
