The work uses a type of cotton cloth commonly found in Chinese households in the 1980s as its base. Red thread traces the walking route from the artist’s project One Day’s Distance—a path from her grandmother’s former home to her grandfather’s, once taken as part of a her marriage journey.

Across the upper portion of the cloth, corn silk forms a fragmentary piece of writing. Its letterforms remain suspended between legibility and illegibility, set alongside other stitched symbols. The incompleteness of the writing, the continuity of the route, and the fragility of the materials overlap on the same surface, presenting family history, women’s labor, and memories that were never fully recorded.
