This is a piece about going to see Antony Gormley's Blind Light exhibition in London last month. If anyone else experienced this, you may appreciate how hard it was to solidify this moment in my mind let alone on paper! I was going to put a bit at the end about spending a fortune in the gift shop! Does it work as is, it's all very misty, but, then, so was the box. Or does it need clearing up more? Thanks! The doorway is barely defined it’s edges hazed: so easy to forget where you began. This fog swamps my lungs, pressing into my chest, pushing this nothing-white hard against my eyes. I can barely see you beyond your hand which I will not let go. Your face is there in memory alone; moulded into shadow dripping away into mist. A form surprises me, fusing, solidifying, a form I thought was lost. You look like you’ve been swimming; your skin like marble, your palm damp in mine. Exiting this is such relief. My eyes awed by corners and angles, and realising how solid the world can be.
