Stretched images of my childhood in Canada simulate memories fragmented and displaced. Attached is a single lattice made of wood taken from the home my parents and I used to live in, which creates a window into these memories, whilst also guarding them. The video projected through these “windows” proposes the physical trauma and effects on the body via these images.
