A Botanical of Grief writes connection to our Ancestors, delving into and relating their reinvented and white-coded experiences and spaces that they occupied. Through a poetic triptych, as protocol for talking to the dead, we reach to the need for irreducible narratives, to be accessed by descendants in defining themselves.

We represent what we hear in the spaces between, silences that speak volumes and call for us to take heed.
