Unearthing the Memories of Our Formative Years in ‘Virgin Labfest XX’s Set A: Bubot’

Bubot—a term closely tied to immaturity and underdevelopment—captures a moment that once existed, before and during our early teens. This set forces us to revisit a time repressed by college and work, resurfacing memories indiscriminately: the good, the bad, and the so-so.
