barbara Edition 2 is primarily concerned with the themes of love, loss, and the memories that define "family". From grappling with cultural identity to the touching yet sad moments of elder care, comfort found in layers of loved ones' clothing, or the sharing of our lives & homes with nature, we are encouraged to reflect upon our own sense of belonging and place in the world.
