We all have stories of loss, but if we’re lucky, we find our way again. Vian Sora’s “Displaced Narratives” tells her story of being lost and then found, by a paintbrush. Sora lived in Baghdad when Saddam Hussein was the ruler. To survive emotionally and mentally, she painted scenes from the ancient civilizations of Mesopotamia, Assyria and Babylon. She also experimented with the Mesopotamian craft of engraving on canvas. Also on display is her new series that features the suffering that war wages against race, religion and sexuality. Sora was lucky; she found her way again — to Louisville.
