TANDA
NHAWFAL JUMA'AT X VALERIE LIM
TANDA (to mark) is the evidence to a witnessing, captured and etched by imagination. For a space forgotten, for a place celebrated. For a space as she is. The obvious curves of the district, her signs, symbols, myths, legends. Her face. All to be encarved and mapped out as the eyes trace out what the mind remembers. Tanda is to whisper,
Fragile at first when we met,
You must know that
there's no regret,
I'm in debt for the times
we have had,
If you remembered you weren't that bad when we first met,
Your clairvoyant eyes
sees through me,
Poignant and alluring though
I hardly know thee
It is heartwarming, working with people and especially in a creative project. Fills up my jar of empathy and bridges the gap of lesser strangers in our lifetime. I felt that every point of participation in this project was full of unravelling of memorable moments which are new and that I am truly happy with.
