Firstly, I want to remove myself from the physical, mental and social environment that is my everyday life, and enter a parallel space where I can shed unwanted modes of being in world.

Secondly, my wish is that the inhabitation of Sister Hope Home will inspire a psychedelic eco-art project that I am developing.
