And then the whole cabin went black for the landing, for reasons no one asked about. And only two people resisted the grip of mass-resignation and kept up what kept them up. One, across the aisle, reading her book, tracing and traversing the vertical Japanese script-scape up and down the pages. The other, next to me, writing. Maybe the same thing I’m writing right now. When was the last time I saw someone engage a reading light? Years ago? Decades ago? I can’t possibly remember. And now two at once. A good day for humanity.
This print is part of the new 2023 collection NOT JUST ANY WORLD. The series consists of 15 prints and was curated with the help of my audience.
