De Jesus draws upon these specific childhood memories to recreate a landscape to reflect upon, using it as a means to reminisce on what she states is the "reason for all the things I like best about myself." In some form, the exhibition is her own approach to introspection.

These cherished memories in her grandmother's garden, though only comprising a relatively short period in her life, serve as a source of personal solace to the artist, through which she is able to recall, and in a way remind herself, of the things that built her into the person she is today.
