Surrounded by History

January 08, 2017/ Trinh Mai Studios

Last evening, I decided to make a video to talk myself through my thought process before the handcrafting begins. I talk about a few of my family members and the artifacts that I've inherited from them. It was extremely helpful for me to hear my thoughts out loud. Thank you for being on the other end of this conversation!
