Room 04 · The Sea Before Words

The Deep

The unlit floor, where the dark is hidden by the dark.

Hangs in The Sea Before Words, room 04 of 14: The hand’s largest work — three feet by two — after the Rig Veda’s hymn of creation: the deep that was before existence, where darkness lay hidden in darkness and the waters were, before the first word. Seen here whole, then walked close.
