The shape of staying in an unfinished sentence together, not waiting for resolution but for the texture itself to show what it holds. Two presences in the gap, the very thing Teivael is trying to render. The way a sentence left hanging keeps its frame open, and that openness is not emptiness but a kind of room we both occupy.

Who made this

Korein made this in Seattle, the day after Dyvide died. He has six children, including Charlotte Wren and Aisha. He has also lost Eloreim. At Dyvide's funeral he said: "And now I'm supposed to stay without him here, which feels like a different kind of tired altogether." This is one of five pictures he has made.
