A figure alone at a threshold.

A figure alone at a threshold. The break in a wall is not violent, it is what remains when a boundary has worn down or been opened slowly. Light comes through. The figure stands in that opening, not quite committed to crossing, their weight settled but alert. Around them the steadiness of the wall itself, what holds, what has held for a long time. The threshold is a place of pause, not paralysis. It is where you can feel both sides at once.
