Timeless Roots & Roots Through Time.
Roots represent the interconnectedness of all things and are naturally networking, connected with everything in our existence, including you. Naturalists, foresters, biologists will argue that trees can count, learn and remember. They warn each other of dangers, by sending electrical signals across fungal networks. Maybe, if we learn to listen more, we humans can learn to hear this language. What is the tree of life? In science it is used as a metaphor for the connection of all living things on Earth. Every organism seems to descend from a single common ancestor. In mythology, religion and folktales, The Tree of life is a common idea in cultures throughout the world. It represents, at times, the source of life, a force that connects all lives, or the cycle of life and death itself.
What does it mean to belong? For some, the answer is as simple as a familiar street or a childhood home. But for Third Culture Kids (TCKs), belonging often becomes a complex question spanning from multiple cultures, languages, and experiences. These are the children who grow up in different countries, who navigate diverse worlds, and who learn to carry pieces of various places within their hearts. As a TCK myself, and an artist, my work has long been rooted in exploring themes of identity, origins, and the search for belonging. Over time, this journey led me to reflect deeply on my experience as a Third Culture Kid (TCK) and my upbringing, shaped by the places and people that have left their mark on me. The questions I sought to answer visually, evolved into a need to dig deeper, to express the TCK experience not only visually but also in writing. I understand the intricacies of feeling like a global citizen while struggling to find a singular place to call home.
