An exploration of diaspora, estrangement, belonging, and the fuzzy landscapes of home.
Through layers of doodles, photographs, marks, drawings, memories, and mixed media, I trace the places traveled, the places dreamed of going, the places passed through, and the places where perhaps, briefly, a home was made.
layered and fragmented
the experience of living between worlds
world-making
The unsettled space between here and there, between leaving and arriving, between feeling held by a place and feeling perpetually outside of it.
belonging to and from fragments and creating new worlds
the tensions of belonging: the simultaneous feeling of being deeply connected and perpetually estranged, of being from somewhere and not fully belonging anywhere. What does it mean to make a home when home itself feels unknown? What happens when the places we inhabit do not fully recognize us, and when we must create our own forms of belonging?
home is not a fixed location. It is a question. A feeling. A memory that shifts beneath the feet.
