In this work, I have worked to analyze and restructure the real and the imaginary memories of my childhood. I attempted to represent scattered emotions of the ordinary and the pain using these shattered fragments. However, it is those scattered emotions that constituted my deepest self-perception. Just as the first image of this work, the secluded river, which is the start of this story, has been abandoned for many years where I used to play when I was a child. The river not only is the carrier for the childhood memories, but also is the trace of the source of my growth. During the production, they allowed me to retrospect the imprints left by the past with my current eyes. The process is a private conversation between me and myself, my past, and my home; the images become mysterious and soundless here, just like those unspeakable but expression-seeking moods of mine.
