Costay (first draft artist statement)

Who am I?

Why do we feel compelled to search and trace our family roots?

When we find them, these names are just that, names, and in many occasions not linked to the immediacy of our current lives.

But they do root us in history. They make us feel connected to something, however obscure and seemingly aimless.

Connected to everything, where if you go back far enough, you can see we are related to everyone.  Deep. We all have shared blood in our veins. Are we family?


Who are you?

  1. hi Patti, I really like your statement. It resonates with how I have looked at in my personal history. Differently but still... 'connected' as you say above.
