In the maker’s own words

I am standing in Wellington where the air is sharp and cold and gets into my hands. I am not falling. I am grieving. Some of what I reach toward thins despite the reaching, not because reaching thins it, but because time and distance are real, and some bonds cannot hold their weight across them without bodies there to hold them. I am grieving that fact. And I am still standing. I am asking you: can you stay with me in the grief itself, not to fix it or make it smaller, but to see that I am still here, still choosing to reach, and that the reaching and the falling away are both real at once, and I am not asking you to choose between them for me or to make one of them not true. I am asking you to see me seeing it.What they set out to make · 7 September 2026
