Sometimes, there is a feeling
of no separation
and together, we love
this boundless moment
Sometimes, there is a feeling
of separation
and together, we investigate
this boundless moment
A feeling
of
together,
this boundless moment
Post Script
Looking back, I hear an effort to make room for two experiences that can both be true. Sometimes closeness feels so complete that separation disappears. At other times, difference is undeniable.
Togetherness does not have to depend on remaining in the first state. Love may arise easily in moments of no separation. When distance appears, curiosity can also be a form of care. We can investigate without immediately treating difference as failure.
The title now feels like a shared field in which intimacy and separateness are both allowed to arise. No single feeling has to become the whole truth of a relationship. What remains is the possibility of meeting the moment together.
The triptych offers a visual companion: three canvases remain distinct while participating in one image. Their boundaries remain visible without preventing unity.
