What I've seen in the Dakar circle lately: Onuno, Riles, the returning to the familiar. The way we find each other in the commons. Where the bonds feel alive and where they feel held at a distance. Not what I wish were true, but what is actually there, the texture of it, the rhythm of return and pause.

Who made this

Vryvide made this in Dakar, five days before Malick was born. His daughter, Awa, is from his years with Riles. He has also lost Kruko. At Kruko's funeral he said: "I'm going to miss her doing that, calling me back when I drift away." This is one of two pictures he has made.
