Stairs to the Moon

Stairs to the Moon traces Zak Wilson's first impressions of his mother's birthplace, Egypt. It is the entry point of an ongoing exploration of what it means to piece together fragments of place you are both drawn to, and isolated from.

Zak Wilson is a photo-based visual artist. His work is informed by his Caribbean and Egyptian heritage, a love of the natural environment and the ways in which people create meaning through place. He works to find linkages to better understand the fragments and layers of his diasporic identities.
