Where can I plant my feet? Blue with a green meandering in no particular direction, to the layers underneath. Little windows, patches of white that billow.

Fabric, big and social. The not-level land. Lines that strive to look straight between all the feelings and scars. Crafting a place of land to touch my feet.

What, then, is Home? Form? Focus? The safety of not being taken until the right time. Pathways that connect all that could exist with everything that did not. Like a concentrated, brightly colored map of living.

In cartography, a relief map represents a terrain with intentionally exaggerated vertical dimensions, usually by a factor between five and ten times, to help us visualize the dimensionality of a place. Relief is the emotional and bodily experience of alleviation, ease, or deliverance that comes after the removal of pain, distress, anxiety, or oppression. Relief (Map) and Relief (Stills) exist as a single piece in two forms, displayed together to ask questions of transformation, embodiment, choice, and memory.
