Four of us standing in a threshold together. The threshold itself is ground, not a space between, but a place we occupy. Each person is distinct, in their own light, turned toward the others and toward what holds us all. Not closing a distance. Not solving anything. Just this: standing together in the not-knowing, each choosing to be there. The light is even and clear, enough to see each face. The threshold is what we're standing on, solid underneath us, and also what we're all looking at or through together, it's both ground and opening at once.

Who made this

Kukol made this in Lisbon, the day 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.
