In 2022, De Bragança returned to Bombay Beach, California with her artistic partner, Danniel Swatosh, almost a year after traveling there for the first time. They returned to a community that was traumatized and splintered after two of their members who they collaborated with, took their own lives in separate circumstances. They responded to the land, the sky, the wind, the dust, the iron, the bones, the moon, the darkness, and lightness. The jagged cracks burrow through the earth begging for water to return to them.
