L’héritage

$25.00

8×10.5″ 160 pages We inherit a house, a nose, recipes, a name, debts, defects, traumas, language and reality. The legacy has blurred contours, it intrudes into identity in a sometimes very tangible way, and sometimes subtly, unconsciously. Our differences remind us of the history that precedes us and we find ourselves questioning what builds us, what has been passed on to us. By adding generational experiences, the legacy is built on a scaffold of progress. But inheritance is not only retroactive, it stems primarily from the relationship we cultivate with him. Heritage is constantly being rewritten, with each individual having an influence on the social continuity and heritage they leave behind. The legacy is both past and future, tradition and innovation, stability and change, innate and acquired, societal and individual, bequeathed and received. Let us draw on our artistic, ideological, technological and personal heritage to honour the wealth of our heritage and add ours.
