In Lighter than the Words We Share (2025), commissioned by the Zeppelin Museum, Aziza Kadyri reimagines the Zeppelin airship not as industrial machinery but as a mythical figure suspended between memory and invention. Drawing on Persianate fables and the storytelling structure of Kalila wa-Dimna, the work blends archival images from the museum with Central Asian stories, symbols, and textile motifs. Through AI-driven animations and speculative narration, Kadyri invites viewers into a layered, dreamlike landscape. The installation reflects on how the Zeppelin’s story might have been imagined by those who never saw it firsthand, crafting a counter-narrative through absence and interpretation. It also honours the overlooked labour of women who stitched airship envelopes, connecting their craft to Uzbek collaborative traditions. Sculptural and interactive, the piece evokes a suspended world – part skeleton, part dreamscape – charged with memory, silence, and the possibility of reimagining forgotten histories.
