When the physical and emotional boundaries are strained by the confines of space, it results in a weakened connection to the external world, often leading to a state of stagnation. Drawing inspiration from personal experiences, this project explores the phenomenology of immigration. 

When the environment changes, migrants who are “othered” cannot maintain their identities, lifestyles, and culture. Thus, they continually seek solutions to interact and integrate with their new environment. By adopting the perspective of a scavenger, within a fictional portrayal of the existence of time and space in human history, the story navigates the complexities of transformation. This transformation challenges notions of existence and embraces the fluidity of human experience. Through a blending of memories and narratives, it unearths the repercussions of change while celebrating the liberation found in the dynamic nature of our being.
