We speak of the windows and I see that you are distracted, you look for your own face in the shiny glass and your secrets, or the stories you tell, they stay trapped in this back and forth they don’t get to me. Water that runs, water that slaps, digging up absurd structures, inoperable. teems overflows crosses until it doesn’t pierce but it eats away with the perseverance of a hundred year old ant indifferent army that presses onward bit by bit.

This artist’s book gathers some textual, visual, and sonic traces.
