I love your framing of Montogmerys piece as a moment of quiet contemplation, I finally got around to writing words about art and emotion and how we process it all, see the bit on quiet dialogue. :-) https://leilaainge.substack.com/p/have-you-been-moved-to-tears?sd=pf

Thank you for such a poignant post. I love Dong’s imagery of imprints. I often think about my relationships in terms of the imprints we make on each other as we pass through life, some beautiful and helpful, others painful and damaging.

I would have enjoyed participating in the exhibition and taking the opportunity to share something personal in a public space that I knew was impermanent. I think that’s an enticing invitation.

It brought to mind Candy Chang’s Before I Die project. Great participatory art on the theme of mortality and drawing a focus on what’s truly important to us.

Love to all who are missing someone special to them x
