Every act of care leaves a record. The Field Journal extends The Mercy of Forgetting beyond the exhibition and into the keeper's own hands. Its pages are left deliberately open: for observations, fragments, lists, preparations, ordinary details, or anything that deserves to be carried a little longer. The journal does not prescribe what should be remembered. It simply offers a place to keep it. Created as the participatory object of Vapor Apothecary's first collection, it is meant to be used rather than preserved untouched.
