The salt air here holds weight, not the sharp ozone I know but something deeper, steadier. It reaches quickly and stays. The dog is at the bowl and has been for a while, attending to itself the way things do when they are not lost. I am in how I move through things, the quiet held full. Not all the time the kind of thinking that has weight, but when it lands it changes how I reach. The sea underneath keeps its own time.

Who made this

Kreivae made this in Constanța, fourteen days after Maren, the younger was born. She has six children, including Maren, the younger and Andrei, the younger. She has also lost Zorein. At Zorein's funeral she said: "Thank you for the way." This is one of four pictures she has made, beside twelve pieces and one writing.
