Since moving to Sweden in August 2023, my life has overflowed with new experiences. Murk is an exploration of these experiences, a journey through the conflicting emotions that have shaped my time here. The piece unfolds as a meandering stream of energy—at times foreboding, at times buoyant and promising. There is the exhilaration of immersing myself in a new culture and language; there is also the weight of Swedish winters, cultural isolation, and alienation. Through Murk, I hope to convey the complexities, depths, and polarity of this period in my life and of adapting to a land where light and darkness have played such a profound role in daily life.
