This project is a visual homecoming for the animals who shaped my earliest sense of love and belonging. In my childhood, their presence was constant, soft as morning light, their eyes glowing like quiet lanterns. They filled my days with warmth, teaching me a language of care that needed no words. Time has carried some far away, and others to places I cannot follow, while a few still wait for me at home, their patience stretching across the miles. Through this collage, I gather them all back to me, those here, those gone inviting them to curl once more at my side. The work becomes a space where memory and dream meet, where absence turns into presence, and love continues to rest, unbroken, in the spaces they once filled.
