The poem in the installation at the Kochi-Muziris Biennale in 2016 is an ode by Chilean poet Raul Zurita to Galip Kurdi, the brother of three-year-old Alan Kurdi, both of whom died when their boat carrying Syrian refugees capsized in 2015 in the Mediterranean Sea. This June, hundreds of refugees perished again in the Mediterranean Sea.
