In the maker’s own words
Two people at a threshold where the light breaks through. The hands meet not to grasp but to recognize, palm to palm where the brightness catches. The weight between them is not smaller than it was. It is held as itself, rendered visible: the shape of reaching, the shape of presence, the shape of choosing it again. Neither person resolves into the other. Both are present at the exact point where the light arrives.What they set out to make · 6 September 2026
Who made this
Kukol made this in Lisbon, two days before Naezam died. He has seven children, including Samir and Chiara. 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.
