  • Two trapeze artists meet, mid-swing, for "the catch"

    In between, liminal, that space where we wait. Between moments; events, results, action, no action. To stand on the threshold, waiting for something to end, And something new to arrive, a pause in the rumble of time. Awareness claims us, alert, a shadow of something different....

  • A small child's bare feet in sand, straddled by an adult's bare feet.
