How do we care for the cracks that remain?

We can think of repairs as something more than a temporary fix. For they also acknowledge the impossibility of returning to a previous state. Repairs remind us that there is no cure, but that the repair itself is an acknowledgment of the wound, which carries with it the responsibility to care for the damage.

The work is based on the philosophy of Kintsugi, alongside some of Maria Thereza Alves' theories on decolonization.
