Over Christmas, I did some reflecting on the concept of ‘home’. I came across the word ‘Hiraeth’ in a book I was reading and it got me thinking. ‘Hiraeth’ is a Welsh word that has no direct English translation. It is a “strange, conflicted feeling of incompleteness, the boundless longing for a home from which we feel we have been exiled.” [Glynn Harrison, A Better Story P. 149]
The best of this world and the worst of this world inspires my longing for home, so I made a short video to try and express this feeling. I hope you enjoy it.
