This story explores the idea of home: what it means to leave it, return to it, and see it differently with time. Created in high country Victoria, Australia, the project is rooted in the landscape and places that shaped me. My grandmother’s garden, handwritten notes from my two grandmothers and the familiarity of the Australian landscape become quiet reminders of where we come from and what stays with us when we leave.
