NEARNESS / DISTANCE
An Open Book
A quail’s talons are painted with red ink infused with the blood of gay men refused the right to donate upon an illustration of one woman turned away and pushing the woman in the second page away.
.
On one page, representing the indulgent desire to push away, ignore truths of the self & choose the isolating art of disassociation.
.
On the other, representing the inevitable need for nearness; in community, in ourselves, in our routine & daily lives that lead to the vast unknown.
This is a dichotomy that lives in each of us; will we choose to be vulnerable in all its mess or will we choose the veil & check out?
