Project Statement

observes how systems of delineation
          superimposed
                 by the settler state

dismembers land

         creating fragmentation

          in my relation

           with geographies of home

& uses hechizos
the handwoven
   & the braided

to call to
a re-membering

of land’s memory
within the centers
        of body

inviting the bounded
        & the delineated
into kinship

    ceremony

             play

[a compassionate collapse]

allowing for the cultivation of return
                                     an entering

                a reconciliation
to the place of residing
