Home

As migrants, we have lived and relocated, 

We have experienced many different places, 

Met many people and called many places home. 

Is home my birthplace, where I grew up? 

Is home my family? 

Is home my childhood friends? 

Is home the people I love, 

The ones with whom I feel safe and secure? 

Is home a new country that welcomes me?

Is home a city that lets me express my true self?

Is home a memory of a scent, a sensation, 

A vision or a taste that reminds me of my youth? 

Or is home where I will go after death and passing? 

It is shifting, changing, 

And I am still trying to find it.

THINN THINN & NYEIN AUNG

Born and raised in Yangon, Myanmar, Thinn Thinn developed a passion for art and nature while exploring her grandmother's garden. She utilizes diverse techniques to document and convey fleeting moments. Nyein Chan Aung, an award-winning Industrial Designer and Artist, explores 'subtle fantasy' by crafting art with overt narratives that conceal subtle anomalies, including chronological discrepancies, physical impossibilities, and unexpected juxtapositions.
