A piece of us had died after the 4th of August apocalyptic blast. When we went down to the most affected areas from the blast, we were struck by the most vulnerable left-behind objects: eyeglasses, a very fragile yet indispensable everyday element, be it on the pavement, between the glass debris, in a building, in the middle of the street, etc. We instinctively started collecting them, writing down the location, the time, and a description of the site, stories of buildings, of the potential owner of each spectacle. A collective of an everyday shattered practice. It took us a while to get back to these findings. However, as hard as this could be, we believe that the work needs to be shared and to become public, to make sure that it will be there to remind the world of the 4th of August. A date not to be forgotten.
