The living room, the intergenerational social room, the stage room, the practice room, the playroom, the relaxing room, the singing room, the yoiking room, the conversation room, the wise room, the ancestry room, the human and non-human room, the friend room, the family room, the culture room and the everything / everyday life room. The space that transforms, the space that imagines and is imagined.

The space that witnessed our growth, witnesses our present and will witness the futures of us - — the room that stays, the room that is home. The guardian and protector of play, pleasure, failure, success, laughter, creativity, joy, questions, celebration and endless potential and possibilities. The one who contains the traces and trajectories and holds you. The room that remembers you and welcomes you back time after time again. The room made from, tied to, surrounded by and will once again become the Earth.

This is where it all started and this is where we return to. Here we revisit the memories and create and craft new ones, here we are moved by the layers of times coexisting through us, here we negotiate them. This is where we are in constant conversation, discoveries and fluxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

We cherish this room dearly. <3
