What might be separate tools and parts become one surface. Repetition turns to rhythm, and rhythm to a field. Near becomes far; form yields to pattern.
High Island, Last Light - Hawaii. Edge of day skims the island roof; ice and ash share the slope. The sky is close, the ground quiet, a figure standing between the two.
