Are relationships that are formed in the margins and conjugated beneath what is speakable, escape cultural contexts, or do they depend on them even more? If language is formed by the very cultural forces that marginalise us in the first place, can it do the job of connecting one margin to another? What names do we give to the relationships that thrive on being nameless?Room: Heaven (Level 2)
