“We are not Strong Enough for Rivers and Stars” is the 3rd iteration of a body of work that explores the entanglement of the Covid-induced encounter with a world of isolation, and a different solitude produced by a physical condition that limited my movement.

I felt I both shared and was lost in a collective reflection on the failing promises of a stable world, the sense that all was all coming apart. Minds were both elsewhere and here concurrently.
