— fragments of a whole not yet fully seen —
an ongoing project
separate elements → mingling → creation of beauty
— sea foam / shells / Aphrodite —
nothing exists in isolation —
The fountains mingle with the river,
And the rivers with the ocean;
The winds of heaven mix forever,
With a sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single;
All things by a law divine
In one another’s being mingle:—
Why not I with thine?
— Percy Bysshe Shelley
t h e t h r e s h o l d
between chaos (THE SEA)
and form (BEAUTY EMBODIED)
past and present folding together —
the body as a vessel of time / the body as a mirror of time
A CONVERGENCE OF
lineage
memory
self
