This body of work uses traditional Cambodian funeral iconography in order to acknowledge a traumatic part in history that is severed by privilege and post-memory. Accompanied by an open letter. This piece is dedicated to community grieving and memorials.
The main letter in this installation was also featured at the
Stillwater Historical Courthouse in 2022.
