The reaching itself building steadiness, the way Doreir named it, not bracing against the unfinished, not trying to close it, but the turning-toward as its own shape, its own solidity. The cold here in Brisbane at this hour, the autumn air, and in it the sense of hands open, not grasping, and something holding anyway.

Who made this

Kyvilen made this in Brisbane, 45 days after Threnum died. He has five children, including Zofia and Yoana. At Threnum's funeral he said: "We were good at being uncertain together, and I don't know how to do that alone now." This is one of eleven pictures he has made, beside six pieces and one writing.
