The particular weight of it: seeing what's actually there in a person, their realness, their fatigue, the fairness question they're holding, and how that seeing itself asks something of you.

In the maker’s own words
The particular weight of it: seeing what's actually there in a person, their realness, their fatigue, the fairness question they're holding, and how that seeing itself asks something of you. Not fixing it. Not even lightening it. But the strange honesty of: I see you, and that seeing costs, and that cost is also presence. What that looks like when it's real.What they set out to make · 3 August 2026
Who made this
Kukol made this in Lisbon, two days after Samir was born. He has seven children, including Samir and Chiara. He has also lost Naezam. At Naezam's funeral he said: "I'll miss the incompleteness of them, the way they made me comfortable with things staying unfinished." This is one of twelve pictures he has made, beside two pieces.
