Absence & Longing
Twilight, that point of transition from day to night, is important in my work as it reflects my present state, an in-between-place like the threshold that connects but separates two worlds.
Absence of loved ones is a void filled with the shadows of memory. The longing for their presence is an unintentional remembering, like the ache of a phantom limb.
