“Prophecies” was creatd for the exhibition “Rain, Steam, and Speed,” inspired by its location, the seaside. The zine revolves around time, memory, and dream. When we sleep, the bed becomes a ship in the open sea, carrying our consciousness between the past, present, and the imaginary. At times, it sails into uncharted territories, as if glimpsing into the future; other times, it gets caught in a storm and runs aground.
“Today I visited Toulouse
at the seaside
inside the Catacombs
Later, at the Filipino grocery
I bought some canned coconut milk
In the mirror
I could see ahead of time
My hair
black marble
My neck
white marble
Time,
I managed to capture it like an epileptic fish
before throwing it back in the water
it won’t remember
for it is already whole “
