WHAT LINGERS

She rests in the hush between daylight and dream, half-remembered by the desert around her. A woman shaped by silence and sun. The negative space becomes a pause, a suggestion, a refusal to be fully known. She is incomplete by design. Not everything we are gets carried forward. It holds what memory can’t.
On natural wood paneling, the grain weaves through her absence like time itself. This piece is a meditation on presence, disappearance, and the stories we leave behind when we finally allow ourselves to rest.
