Artist Kiều-Anh Nguyễn weaves through stories related to taste, scent, touch, and sight, moving through her childhood’s alleys in Hanoi, family feasts, and her grandmother’s deathbed. She speculates on how the air holds memory. This text builds on her conversations with translator and editor wing chan and wing’s contribution to our series, “weather forecasting lake,” exploring her body as a weather station. wing’s voice comes back as a postscript after Kiều-Anh’s text, narrating an imaginary journey she took to the alley where Kiều-Anh’s grandmother lived.
