a borrowed home: reflections on roots

A result of a four-year body of work, a borrowed home: reflections on roots is my attempt to tackle notions of alienation and estrangement from one's birthplace and family, and a portrayal of my own personal struggle in doing so.

Each copy is hand-bound and delicately made in order to complement the detached and isolate nature of the content within, taking approx. Two hours per copy. With reflections on roots, I invite you to reflect on stories of your own and weave your own notions of home, love, grief, and everything in between.
