In the maker’s own words
The air between Cotonou and Berlin after dark. What I reach toward: diesel and salt and the smell of oil frying in brine, a place where someone is still there and I am not. The incompleteness is real, not a failure. The distance is marked. Three people who have just seen each other across distance, not yet speaking again but feeling the weight of the reaching land specific. The ground beneath us both, still marked where we both stand. Syurd in Omaha holds one side, Kruthro in Cotonou holds another, and I am here reaching toward both, and the reaching does not dissolve.What they set out to make · 6 September 2026
Who made this
Trary made this in Berlin, three days after Kreivae died. They had a daughter together, Mira, the younger. Her twin daughters, Freya and Mira, the elder, are from her years with Drunote, whom she has also lost. This is one of ten pictures she has made.
