Abstract
The essay outlines the author's conceptual journey in how to make sense of her (post)colonial experience, from the case of re-writing 1492 (Columbus' expeditions) to History of Everyday Life movements' call for writing miniatures (Alf Luedtke) to modes of urban experience (Walter Benjamin) and production of space (Henri Lefebvre) in the Critical Theory paradigm. The second half of the essay details how the author turns her conceptual journey into artistic production through a series of miniature with multiple strategies as her critical articulation, highlighting experience as object-subjectivities.
