she has a pet cock. some scars. and, thousands of stories. she dreams of owning a hut in the middle of the rice-fields or near the sea. it will be full of seashell blinds, tie-dyed curtains and old things from people she met/loved/walked barefoot with.

Dearest Big Sister (written in a more unsure manner),

I heard you are flying again today. If you are up there, can you look down and find me? I will wear a red shirt so you can easily see me. Will you also take a train? Take a photo of the chimney or the railroad.

Kuj

(written in an unsure manner)





Like dew on a leaf, I felt the veins of the earth. Skin on the cold water, solitude submerged – with no human forms in sight. Only the vines which crawl downwards, trying to touch the big rocks, only the hanging bridge that leads people from mountain to mountain, only the passing birds, sometimes in twos – sometimes in flocks. I was there: small, grateful, confused, found, finding. Is it possible to leave a piece of your heart in places you go to? And after all these years, am I walking with missing pieces clothe by bones and brown skin? Will I be walking around to empty my soul more to really live? Or after all, I am just a part of a circle?

Flow. WO/ANDER. Soul connections. Addicted to that feeling.

People, wherever they are- in mountains or cities or slums or concrete jungles, they open their heart to you to tell you how lucky you are for being somewhere else. For being somewhere where they are not. And you tell them, it is a matter of appreciation or a matter of leaving. Some of those you meet are just happy to be where they are. And some are more than glad to drift and be a part of something unfamiliar yet connected to them. Wherever that leads, no one knows. Most of them try to get by, every waking life.

I tried to open my eyes under water. There I saw tiny bubbles which reminded me of breathing. I saw tiny singers – those that I only see when I take my homeward bound bus. When it is raining.



Kuj (in tired letters),



I am sleeping on the airport floor at 2am. 2 hrs on a jeep rooftop yesterday. I wish I am taking some aircraft that does not emit bad air but yeah, I got promo ticks. I'll try to find you later at 8:57 AM. Took the MRT days ago and did not like it. No photos there, sorry. Will you visit me if I decide to live near the mountains/forests/seas?



Excited for your questions,

Nang T

I love the culture in your works. It's so subtle but deep and I can identify even before I realize I have.
