Charlotte SáenzThis Suitcase Project arose out of my intense sadness and anger during last summer's war in Lebanon, as I wondered whether bombed bridges & roads could lead my loved ones to safety. It is an attempt to connect my communities here with my communities there--a simple idea that led to many unexpected connections, emotions, and challenges. For some of the participants it was just an exchange, for others a fragile and momentary connection, yet others took it as an opportunity to express their own emotions, in letters and packages prepared with much thought and care for a stranger over there.
