Grandma’s Ocean (work in progress) is an attempt at seeking connections and re-imagining with personal narrative through the medium of game-making, collage and personal narrative. 3 women in 3 different time periods, the game characters’ lives and paths mirror and build on top of each other. Their generation connection cycles through different political and historical influences, carrying love, trauma, and tattered ideas of home to each of their lives and individual actions. This is my attempt to close some gaps between myself and her and her.
