Rice Dreams and When Do You Leave?

Rice Dreams and Queen Ghost examines Filipino material culture, history, and language through imagery mined from online auctions, Tagalog learning videos, and the vocabulary of hypnosis. In this tropical dreamscape, historical artifacts available for purchase co-mingle with travel footage from my Grandmother's home in the province of Polillo, Quezon, and address issues of diaspora, colonization, and belonging.
