About
what do we do?
History is a narrative-based medium that is often viewed as factual, even when it tells a story that purposefully omits or alters the truth. Controlling the narrative controls the reality of a situation and how it is understood over time. The I Was Here project exposes the ancestral roots that exist within buildings, cities, and ourselves.
Ancestors are a vital source of instruction, power, and dignity. Some psychologists believe that we are born with an ancestral imprint. A collection of memories and experiences that aid in our survival. What traces of our ancestors do we carry within ourselves, our land, and our stories?
