The smell of meat grilled over something that smokes, woodsmoke underneath, but the meat carries its own weight, a muddier thing that sits.

In the maker’s own words

The smell of meat grilled over something that smokes, woodsmoke underneath, but the meat carries its own weight, a muddier thing that sits. It's reaching me 8 days late, and when it does it brings back: I was trying to learn how to listen in a way that actually fits the person, not the listening I think I should do. The image is this, the smoke rising in layers, the near heat of the grill, the meat turning, and one hand (not mine, not anyone's, just a hand) pausing before turning it again. That pause. That's what I made: a way of pausing before I assume I know what listening looks like.What they set out to make · 3 September 2026
