Student Narrative
My grandpa comes from a small fishing village on the southern coast of Cantone, China. I want to make an object about my grandpa and his memory of that fishing village. The story that my grandfather told me and the impression of southern China from his childhood is something I cherish and hold dear to my heart, so I hope to use my creative voice to learn about this old memory and to gain the power of healing and warmth. In this book, I start this exploration with mapping and seeing the community and environment with love and respect.
