As someone of mixed heritage who questions my cultural belonging, I have always been quite curious about the ways in which other cultures view, experience and thick of the world. Japanese culture resonates with me in particular because of its sensitivity to transience and death. There is a constant, gentle melancholia that is embraced within this culture which which strikes a chord.

While still in its early stages, What is in my Mind? is a collaborative research project questioning the subconscious, deconstructing memory and exploring meditative states of mind.
It is an attempt to construct the intangibility of a state of mind through a visual diary.Loosely based on the viral video format of What is in my Bag?, our project treats the mind like a suitcase, or emotional baggage, materializing sensations and thoughts.
My partner and I have a fascination for the lingering sadness and bittersweet untertones of life which is the focus of this project.
