Description

Remains explores the spaces left behind when systems shift and familiar structures begin to change. Through a blend of documented moments and narrative reflection, the book traces how ordinary life is reshaped not by sudden collapse, but by subtle reordering—how what once felt permanent slowly becomes provisional. Rather than centering on singular figures or dramatic turning points, Remains focuses on accumulation: of policies, habits, silences, and small decisions that together alter the shape of a society. It asks not what happens when everything breaks, but what persists when nothing does.
