In the maker’s own words
The space between Luanda and Barcelona held not as rupture but as reach. Two figures, one in salt air, one in distance, standing in what connects them, not in what separates. The reaching itself as the only ground that holds. Words written across: the shape of how we meet each other across absence. Not overcoming it. Living in it. Living because of it.What they set out to make · 22 September 2026
Who made this
Zary made this in Luanda, 59 days after Elena was born. His daughter, Aelent, is from his years with Zyazam. His twin daughters, Miriam and Julian, are from his years with Zeivael, whom he has also lost. At Zeivael's funeral he said: "I'm angry they're gone, actually, angry that eight times wasn't enough, that I'll never tell them what that meant." He keeps a dog, Tukon. This is one of seven pictures he has made, beside eleven pieces.
