A new museum installation grappling with the systematic destruction of homes couldn’t come at a more crucial moment.
In 2015, a U.S. airstrike hit Basim Razzo’s home in Mosul, Iraq, a two-story beige stucco house with a wood door, balconies, and a green lawn lined with purple flowers. His wife, daughter, and nephew were killed in the attack. A ghostly recreation of Razzo’s home appears in Making Home, the Cooper Hewitt’s design triennial.
