Field Notes - wearing two uniforms

A note about moving through rooms that ask for different versions of you.

One uniform for the stage, one for the family, one for the language in your mouth before the room knows what to do with it.

There is the version that knows how to answer quickly. There is the version that knows when to stay quiet. There is the version that learned how to translate itself before it learned how to be honest.

The art starts where those uniforms stop fitting. That is the place these notes are trying to keep open.
