Returning is an interaction where participants were asked to cover their eyes with a blindfold and draw their childhood bedroom. Four blindfolds were made, each inscribed with the word ‘Returning’ in a different language: English, Arabic, Hebrew and Norwegian. The final drawings tend to present broken lines and gaps instead of the continuous shapes intended, akin to the gaps in the process of memorising a space and a time.
