Tandaan - Remember
What does it mean to remember? To sort through the roots and branches of your memories and being, to try to understand yourself - who you are, where you come from, how you came to be, where you are now, and where you are going?
These are the questions Manang tries to navigate as she navigates healing within an unexpected loss. Sorting through the liminal space of her memories, Manang moves through worlds and states of being, both familiar and unfamiliar, flowing through a non-linear journey of remembering. In hopes of rediscovering connection once more with herself and the world she lives in, to find a path towards healing.
This piece explores themes of loss, grief, and colonialism.
