At the onset of their collaboration, Tempa delved into the concept of home, questioning whether it's a physical structure, their hometown, or a loved one. Throughout this process, they reimagined everyday objects found around their homes and close to their families. Things like potted plants, plastic chairs, teapots, and various home decorations were redrawn. Eventually, the idea of home evolved into a narrative continuously explored by Tempa, discovering that questioning the concept of home is a part of seeking harmony.

Harmony is a central theme in their solo exhibition titled "Sari-Sari," which translates to the essence of various life fragments feeling fitting, balanced, and in place. It serves as a reminder that what we're experiencing now is an important part of life that should be lived with full awareness, a "focus on living fully in the present."
