'The title is Ich bin wie du. It is a reference to a 1976 song by the German singer Marianne Rosenberg. The song is about recognition between two people, a sense of equality that transcends differences. In my work for NAK, however, the song takes on a more critical meaning. It raises questions about empathy, alienation, and the difficulty of forming authentic relationships in a world shaped by inequality, migration, and cultural hybridity.'
