About The Episode:Personal narratives make trauma visible by giving form to what often resists direct representation: memory, rupture, silence, and the afterlife of violence. In visual art, these narratives do not simply illustrate painful experience; they transform it into image, gesture, material, sound, and space, allowing trauma to emerge through fragments, absences, repetition, atmosphere, and embodied traces.
