"Building a Home in Between"
Brick #1: Books
For the past decade I have been moving around so many places, living a few months here, a couple years there... never really settling. So my home might look very different from other people's home. It's made of the objects I carry with me in my backpack and suitcases and of memories I make and people I meet.
In this project I represented those objects in the shape of bricks, like I use them to build this home even when in between places.

Books are part of the objects I carry around in various shapes (paperback or electronic). Or else I find my way to books always registering to local libraries.
