Lullaby for a Storm

Created at Womanifesto Residency 2008,
Boonbandarn Farm, Si Saket Province, N E Thailand. November 2008.

… the three puppies are missing after the violent storm in the night. Their mother is anxiously searching for them. Small insects have gnawed through the black silk thread warp on Mae Pan's loom as she slept. She is carefully knotting the broken ends together.

… along with PAD's political rallying blaring on TV, these are the other interruptions in the daily rhythm of life that occupy our minds as a lullaby is sung to soothe little Jumong to sleep.
