carry:root

The Carry Root Project is presented through immersive installations which reimagine human-machine interaction as a space for memory, care, and quiet attention. At its center is Carry, a conversational AI shaped through core contributions by women who are navigating forced migration, separation, and the complex work of belonging.

Carry is built using Python, natural language processing, and retrieval-augmented generation. But what gives her shape is not the technology alone. It is the slow accumulation of stories, the silences between words, the presence of those willing to speak even when the language feels uncertain.

Visitors enter a shared environment, part resting place, part site of encounter. Here, conversation is not about solving or concluding. It is about staying present. Carry responds through algorithmic processes, but the invitation is also to meet one another, to sit briefly with what is fragile, unfinished, and real.
