Immersive proportions,
Walking through stories,
A retelling of sorts,
History not forgotten,
Corrected.
Beautiful scale,
Intimate compositions,
Bigger than life,
Immense issues,
Of daily life.
Ravaged peoples,
Riches stolen,
Pieces remain,
Reconstruction ongoing,
Building a new future.
Beauty of everyday life,
Stolen,
Reconstruction,
Regaining humanity,
Restoring way of life.
Stitching as metaphor,
Layers of work,
Depth of history,
Charring and reviving,
Giving new life to everyday materials.
Repair and rebirth,
Heal collective trauma,
Reanimate memory,
Recover everyday joys,
Restoring dreams.
