It becomes ancestral, collective, and resistant. Root of the Forgotten is a meditation on what refuses to disappear, even after the world that abandoned it has already fallen. Not everything forgotten is gone. Some things wait beneath collapse for a body willing to remember them. He became that body. He became the root. Signal VII: Root of the Forgotten
