Where We Were Wo(r)n explores memory, erosion, and inherited histories through found objects and craft processes. Playing on the words “worn” and “won” (the past tense of the verb to win), the exhibition echoes the quiet fatigue of lineage, where displacement, domestic labour, and generational endurance are held in the seams of cloth and kin.

Drawing from the familiarity of domestic objects and spaces, the work reflects on the often unnoticed places where loss accumulates: the lining of a pocket, a lost lunchbox, the fraying edge of a seam, the places we once belonged to but were worn from. These fragile materials become witnesses to the soft erasures of time, archiving stories that fall outside official histories.

Where We Were Wo(r)n becomes a soft elegy, a stitched reclamation of care, memory, and the ephemeral traces of belonging.
