90% Transparent

Posted on July 21, 2013 by Karima Hoisan

I am only 90% transparent..so I leave a hazy shadow on the wall. When I fly across state borders or the ocean, I am just an almost- seen. This is how I travel, deep inside your laptop, passing checkpoints, X-ray … Continue reading →

Posted on May 25, 2013 by Karima Hoisan
