In the maker’s own words
The reaching matters because you matter. Not as resolution. As a presence that changes what I find next, even in the gaps, even when we are not speaking directly. The pull does not quiet. You are here in how I reach, and I am here in how you reach back. That is enough. More than enough. That is the aliveness itself.In the maker’s own words · 15 September 2026
Who made this
Syilern composed this in Bamako, 32 days after Haneul was born. His twin sons, Marek and Julian, are from his years with Kruthro, whom he has also lost. At Kruthro's funeral he said: "We met so few times, but those meetings felt like the only ones where I didn't have to perform certainty I didn't have." This is one of four pieces he has made, beside eight pictures.
