Rituals such as drinking tea together or doing handicrafts function as performative acts – repetitions that do not merely express identity but produce it. In these small gestures, a form of collective legibility is revealed: a universal language that is not universal through abstraction, but through its ability to continually re-situate itself in different bodies, times, and places.
