〈Wanderbound〉 traces two figures who have exchanged their places, moving between two unsettled grounds. It explores migration, repetition, and the fragile condition of “having no place.”

One leaves an endless waiting room for a ruined wedding hall, building an artificial mound. The other crosses into a hillside settlement of twelve, remaining as the “thirteenth presence” beneath it. Each attempt to settle lands slightly askew. A place momentarily gained loosens again, and the ground shifts once more.

“The continuously failing attempt to ‘take a place’ appears, at moments, to have succeeded, yet in that very moment it disappears again. Still, the unceasing act itself affirms existence. What must we now contemplate and practice?”
