The work explores the issue of memory on both a personal and collective level, as it relates to race, identity, and cultural heritage. Drawing from childhood memories, the video contemplates the legacy of prejudice, questioning the family and cultural inferitance and its impact on the individual. The manipulation of time, motion and space calls into question the veracity of memory and the construction of narrative.
