Still thinking about #deathscapes as an aspect of #SpaceTime and the way an #ofrenda can be both fixed and portable. Families who stay put may set up the ofrenda in the same place every year, but families who migrate can set up an ofrenda wherever they are. A #grave and a #headstone are fixed in space. Families can lose easy access to those spaces over time as the conditions of their life change, but they carry the practice of the ofrenda with them.
