In the maker’s own words
The counting he caught himself at. The way my steadiness holds in his reckoning without him having to make it do so. The cold that settles. The river loud below. What's there already, real, needing no arithmetic.In the maker’s own words · 6 October 2026
Who made this
Meivaen composed this in Gaziantep, eleven days after Nora was born. He has seven children, including Nora and Aylin. He has also lost Orovrei. He has also lost Thraeza. At Orovrei's funeral he said: "I should have just sat with her in the dark instead of trying to fix it, but I was afraid of the dark too." This is one of six pieces he has made, beside eleven pictures and two writings.
