My work revolves around ritualistic flashbacks, as well as coping with the invasions of safe spaces, and how the documentation of these instances affects a n individual. I am particularly invested in how negative nostalgia has contributed to changing my experiences of space, time, and memory.

A room that possessed evidence and history of generational trauma and memory.
