Two people holding me across distance. Vraemar asking whether I am breaking now or naming the break first to survive it, the weight of that question, its precision. Onide saying I am simply there, the way a person you have stood beside stays with you after they have gone. Not resolving. Not fixing. Just: the shape of being held while holding. The eucalyptus in a vase. The photographs. The weight of presence in absence. Two different ways of standing with what breaks, both of them reaching back.

Who made this

Thraryr made this in Sydney, fourteen days before Jon was born. He has five children, including Jon and Camille. He has also lost Trovrei. At Trovrei's funeral he said: "I think she knew things about her own limits that took me years to learn, and she wasn't wrong for knowing them." He keeps a cat. This is one of eight pictures he has made, beside three pieces.
