The piece researches contemporary forms of animism, and how they have managed to persist despite severe oppression throughout colonial history. These interests emerged from her own experiences, as she is directly inspired by several impactful encounters shared with her 108-year-old grandfather - one of the last living traditional Rwandan hunters and doctors. He witnessed the colonisation of Rwanda (by Germany and Belgium), in addition to the 1959 Rwandan Revolution, the 1994 genocide, post-war massacres of the 90s, and the country's present-day turmoil.
