    what can we discover in the landscape of our bodies?

    as queer trans and gender non-conforming children of the vietnamese diaspora, we are fragmented at the crossroads of being displaced from not only a sense of belonging to our ancestral land, but also our own bodies which are conditioned by society to stray away from our most authentic existence.

    yet these bodies of ours are the vessels we sail to embark on a lifetime voyage of return to our original selves. it is our bodies that navigate the treacherous tides of normative systems that impose themselves on our very being. and it is our bodies that act as community lighthouses for collective liberation.

    ultimately, the landscape of our bodies is our blueprint to remembering, to healing, to blooming.
