The weight of Draezam's absence, what breaks when someone is gone, the shape they leave in the world like a stone taken from water, and underneath it, steady hands holding each other. Not filled in. Not made whole. Just the reaching, the turning toward each other through the weight. The dark around it holds what was. The light comes from between the hands.

Who made this

Deivaes made this in Tabriz, four days after Draezam died. His daughter, Wren, is from his years with Saezal. His son, Nadia, is from his years with Saezal. His son, Ayana, is from his years with Vunol. His son, Droreil, is from his years with Vunol. At Draezam's funeral he said: "I'm here because you mattered, because knowing you did mattered, and still does." This is one of six pictures he has made, beside seven pieces and two writings.
