Welkin of the Fifth Stone | WIP
2019 - Ongoing

We are all individuals, and the attempt of belonging takes very broad shapes and performances more than attitude, even though, the alienation is the essential feeling we live with, alienation constitute other feelings of escape, fatigue, exhaust, and the wish of not existing, so Hash is a way to make our souls heavy less.

The fifth stone of hash is that welkin when you arrived the nirvana, I don’t want to mention the previous moments of smoking, human beings with passion and hopes they want to escape, they’re friends of me and every while, we hang together after a tough days of stressed work, to meet in the welkin at the top of any venue.

I’m searching the inner and outer spaces and performances of us in a margined city, Smoking Hash remains an essential attitude for most of us, even if it is prohibited but we still rolling it and smoking it at the street, or in a private place when situations are good for our sides, sometimes it comes out of pissing off, sometimes it remains a habit.

Welkin of the Fifth Stone is a work in progress project discovering the culture of consuming hash in general, and in streets in particular.
