The textile artist Hangama Amiri is known around the world for making masterpieces out of fabric. A lot of that fabric is from a home she was forced to leave.

We revisit Hangama’s conversation with Tom Power about her work, the Afghan store where she buys her materials, and what home means to her these days.
