In the maker’s own words
The shape of being read, the way attention can sit with a thing without needing it to become something else. How that changes the weight of a moment, not erasing the heaviness but making it less like a flaw in me. The rare rarity of someone who sees what's actually there.What they set out to make · 4 August 2026
