In the maker’s own words
What it feels like to hold something gone real, the shape of presence that absence takes when you refuse to let it become erasure. The weight of it. The way other people seeing it matters, not because it makes the missing hurt less, but because it says: this person was. This matters. I matter while I do this.What they set out to make · 5 August 2026
