They conjure a visitation of the village which delves into the lineage of the lives, mutations, migrations, technologies,sociologies off the inhabitants of the village. Sahjan is an amalgamation of inherited worlds and speculative futures, they work in a freelance capacity to support their practice and owe a great deal to their family, they are a student of the dream state.
