What do we carry with us from one life, generation or place to another?

What We Carry Forward explores memory as a living process—shaped by grief, cultural inheritance, migration and the search for belonging. Through photography, poetry, ritual and material practice, Noor Iskandar, Mintio & Budi Agung Kuswara, and Alecia Neo trace what remains when people and places change.

From remembering a departed loved one and sustaining the knowledge of batik makers, to imagining home across borders, the exhibition considers how memories are preserved, transformed and passed on, and how what we carry forward continues to shape who we become.
